Match Destination Format Script - Again!

M

MC

Here we go again. I have an Applescript to paste the contents of the
clipboard into the destination format.

All of a sudden it stopped working, while all my other scripts continued
to work fine.

Someone kindly posted the contents of the script again:

Here it is:

tell application "Microsoft Word"
tell selection
set theClip to string of (the clipboard as record)
set newPoint to (selection start + (length of theClip))
set content of text object to theClip
set selection start to newPoint
set selection end to newPoint
end tell
end tell

I've located the folder where it should go, and pasted the above into
the script, saved it... and it did work a couple of times, but now it
doesn't work again.

1)

Could it be the filename? Right now it is:

" Matching Destination Format.scpt \omV "

2)

There's a space between the 'scpt' and the backslash. Is that okay?

3)

Could it be the contents?

4)

Is it because I didn't save as a new script but pasted over the existing
one?

Anyone have any ideas?
