Hi jef
hey great, thanks! got it working easy, never thought to use Open
URL to open files, but of course it makes total sense.
SoundFileField is a calculation (ID_name_title), so i don't even
need to bother with the insertion step.
Open URL "file://Macintosh HD/Users/UserName/Folder/" & SoundFileField
the only thing i can't do with this method is set which application
to read the file with; the files will be created with Nuendo, but
for this function i want Peak to open them. that would only be
possible -- it seems -- by setting the system-wide preference to
open file type A (Nuendo) to open in programme B (Peak).
That's correct AFAIK
i tried using Send Event (Bring Target App to forefront) to
override the default prog set to open the file, but i'm sure you
know that this doesn't work :-(
It should work, and in fact I've used the Send Event step exactly for
the purpose you mention, to open files with a specific application
Most probably you've encountering syntax problems ...
