Nope - btw you'd find a lot more responsiveness on Multiuser questions if
you posted them to the Multiuser-L mailing list. Details are at

It appears that you can officially use sendMessage() to send a message to
users, groups, movies and server-side scripts, but not internal MUS
commands such as the one you are trying to use. If the call to a system.
recipient other than system.script is working at all, then it's an
undocumented feature.
I'm still researching this one. The other thing is that you are not using
all of the arguments for sendMessage:
whichServerUser.sendMessage( "system.script.subject", \
messageContents {, errorCode {, protocolFlag {, stringSenderID}}})
I would try:
movie.SendMessage ("system.dbplayer.getattribute", \
"system.script.anysubject", \
[#userid: "zeiti", #application: "MyApplication", #attribute: #points], \
0, FALSE, "system.script.yourScriptIDHere")
Let us know if this works!
