I used to use "do" a lot more than I do now… for example, if you have 12 fields
named "MyField1" through "MyField12", instead of using:
repeat with x = 1 to 12
do "put" && quote & "Hello" & quote && "into field" && quote & "MyField" & x
& quote
end repeat
you can use this instead:
repeat with x = 1 to 12
put "Hello" into field ("MyField" & x)
end repeat
It's a lot easier and doesn't bog down processing like using "do" does. There
are definitely certain cases where you need to use "do", but this isn't one of
them.
