This sounds like what I want to do. I have a card field which holds a 
series of text strings separated by returns. I want to grab this and 
put it into my Applescript variable, and the script will turn it into a 
comma delimited string, and follow through to iCal.

Yes. How do I pick up that string of literals. Applescript can't

set theItems to card Field "TheItems"

cause it doesn't know what it is. I need to set the variable from Rev's 
side (?)
