Hi Jim,

I can't get the bookmark-importing AppleScript you posted to work
properly. It appears to step through the list of bookmarks and
creates a record for every line in the list, but when the import is
completed, my Yojimbo database shows 1560 new bookmark records, each
of which is (all of which are) empty.

The first time I tried this, the names of the bookmarks showed in the
Yojimbo window, but each was empty when opened. On subsequent tries
(I deleted the results of the first try), the name fields were empty.

I've tried the script with only a few records (lines of the text
file), but the same problem occurs.
