Brian,
Hmmm... Link to the Sample Scripts do not seem to be working for me.
Can you check it?
Once I get it I would like to try to modify the script to perhaps make
a new document from the unchecked children/parents. I assume it is OK
to use those example scripts as a base, modify them and then re-share
with the community. If not let me know.
If any other more experienced scripters wish to take up the cause feel
free. It may take me a while... Now where did I put that link to the
Applecript Sourcebook again ;-)?
