Hello All,
I tried searching the forum to see if this has already been answered, but couldn't find anything.
I am in an office where some people are on Macs and some people are on Windows. I want to be able to open file and folder locations from hyperlinks in emails when a Windows user sends the link to a Mac user.
An example would be something like:
Dear coworker,
I worked on that file we talked about and you can find the current version here.
Where here. would be a hyperlink and would link to something like this:
file://///server/volume/Design%20Center/Competitions.
I was able to set this up http://erik.arvedson.se/2009/04/converting-windows-paths-to-mac-paths.html which allows me to jump to the folder when they actually type out the path name for me, but I can't figure out how to modify it when a path is embedded in a hyperlink or when I have the longer path name from copying the link.
Can someone more familiar with apple scripting please help me out?
Thanks!
