To get the skim notes you use something like
set theNotes to text Skim notes of linked file 1
You set the Annote field using
set value of field "Annote" to theNotes
You can either write a script that you write manually (e.g. on the selected
items.)
Or you can have this done automatically on some events (for instance when you
attach a file) using script hooks. See the Wiki for some help and samples for
that.
