Im trying to display the date in my variables as a month and day combination (march 31 or mar 31) I have tried the following scripts with no luck.

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set value of variable "date" to month and day of (current date)
end tell

the above code just wont work

However if i do this

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set value of variable "date" to month of (current date)
end tell

it gives me the month correctly

and if i do this

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set value of variable "date" to day of (current date)
end tell

it gives me the day of the month.

I just can't get them together.

Can someone please help

Thank you
Ed

How about:

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set value of variable "date" to(month of (current date) as string) & " " & (day of (current date) as string)
end tell

Thank you anode, that works perfect.

Glad I could help Ed. Apple script can be a bit funky at times. (I'm NO guru, just a hacker)
