It's listed as one of the features of your program/script, but not explicitly under the list of actions in 3.7 (unless it's subsumed under one of the more general descriptions).

So…is it part of 3.7? Thanks!

-----Update----

to piggyback on my own question, i think what i'm really looking for is an automator script that includes rebuilding the spotlight index....

is this one of the actions included under "run periodic" in the automatic maintenance in 3.7 (or 3.8?--i'm still using tiger, but going to upgrade to leopard this summer, i'm just trying to learn this stuff in the meantime)

and if not, has some other good (and wise) soul used the developer tools to modify your script, and make it publicly available?

thanks (to anyone) for their help

3.7 does not include anything to rebuild the spotlight index, that was a 3.8 feature. To my knowledge, no one has made any modifications to Maintenance with the developer files I included with the download. With that said it is possible someone has, but if so the modifications are not supported by me.

If you are just looking for something to rebuild your spotlight index, I would be more then happy to make you a simple program that could do that when you run it.

Hi

Thanks for your offer.

I think it might be time for me to upgrade to Leopard anyway (and thus be able to use 3.8 ).

But thanks again anyway.
