Can’t make application into type application

Question

script error: Can’t make application into type application. (-1700) Bad parameter data was detected or there was a failure while performing a coercion. (Line 17, Character 28). I think it may be a problem with my dialog popup or script the line below.

using terms from application 'Messages'
  on message sent theMessage with eventDescription
    display dialog (eventDescription)

  on message received theText from theBuddy with eventDescription

      set errMsgParts to splitText(errMsg, "\"")
      set errCount to count of errMsgParts
      set myresult to item (errCount - 1) of errMsgParts
    end try 
    display dialog ("/Home/Peter/repos/imessage/message '" & theText & getname & myresult & "'")

Answer 1

I simply changed 'Messages' to "Messages" and that allowed me to compile, perhaps this will help you.

Change the first line from:

using terms from application 'Messages'

To:

using terms from application "Messages"

Hope this helps!
