Description

 

This AppleWorks script duplicates the selected records a set number of times. You are first asked how many times you'd like the record duplicated.



Detail
The “Duplicate Record Multiple” item is in the Database sub-menu of AppleWorks Scripts Menu.

When activated, this script asks you how many times you’d like the selected records duplicated. You type in the number of duplicates and click OK.

Advanced
This script runs much faster if the window is first collapsed, so AppleWorks does not waste time updating the window content after each duplication.

Scripting
This script is unlocked so you can open it in your favorite script editor. It duplicates in batches of 10 to minimize the number of calls to the application for greater speed.

Requirements
Operates on the front document, which must be a database document.

This script works with AppleWorks 6. It also makes multiple duplicates in AppleWorks 5 but will only duplicate the current record, not multiple selected records.

Only registered users are permitted to use the supplied files after 14 days or edit them.

Download
This script is included in the Enhancement Pack for AppleWorks, not supplied separately.
