Using the current topic to start an email

[Roland Küffner]

Hi George,

here is some basic code for your task. Please note that automatic  
creation of attachments from URLs has to be turned off in the  
preferences or this will yield an error (I had some workaround for  
this but I can't find it right now). This is a rather quick and dirty  
bunch of code. It would be nice if you could share better solutions  
you come up with.

happy coding
Roland




tell application "OmniOutliner Professional"
	tell front document
		set theRows to selected rows
		repeat with aRow in theRows
			set theSubject to topic of aRow
			set theText to the note of aRow
			-- the next row assumes that you have a column named "email" in  
your document
			set theAddress to value of cell "email" of aRow
			display dialog theAddress
		end repeat
	end tell
end tell

tell application "Mail"
	set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties  
{subject:theSubject, content:theText & return & return}
	tell newMessage
		-- your sender address here:
		set sender to "from at me.net"
		make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties  
{address:theAddress}
	end tell
	send newMessage
end tell
