I suspect this is super easy and I am just missing the obvious. I have a variable called currentConditions that I would like to take its value and prepend "nt_" to it and save that result to a variable called currentConditionsArt. I hacked this Applescript below. It compiles but won't run. Error in Log says, "currentConditionsArt not defined."

Code: Select all

set a to "nt_"
set b to value of variable "currentConditions"
set value of variable currentConditionsArt to a & b

Thanks in advance for the help!

Put currentConditionsArt in quotes and it will probably work. If it doesn't then add parenthesis around (a & b).

Yup, quotes did it. I really thought I had tried that... Thanks as always, Matt.
