    How do I modify this script?

    Is anybody familiar with this script?. It allows you to play messages via X-10. We use this all the time but nothing in the script marks the message as "read." I have been playing around with it (I am pretty much a script novice) and have gotten to where I can mark all messages as read except the last message. I am assuming this is not a hard thing to do, but I'm stumped.

    Post your script and we'll have a look.

      This is the original script (I think last updated by jon00). I left out the instructional comments. From looking at other scripts I think I need HSPline, CurrentMessage=hsp.MBFirstUnreadMessage(HSPLine, MB) and hsp.MBMarkRead(CurrentMessage)

      ============================
      sub main()
      dim mb
      dim messages
      dim mfile
      dim count
      dim i
      dim a
      dim b
      dim c
      dim d
      dim HSPLine

      HSPLine=1

      set mb=hsp.MBGetDefault ' get the default mailbox
      set messages = mb.messages ' get the collection of messages
      count = messages.count ' get the total number of messages
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M17", 2 ' set playing messages on
      hs.SetDevicestatus "M1",3 ' turn off play/skip
      CurrentMessage=hsp.MBFirstUnreadMessage(HSPLine, MB)
      if count=0 then
      hs.speak "There are no phone messages",1
      else
      if count=1 then
      hs.speak "There is "& cstr(count) & " phone message.",1
      else
      hs.speak "There are "& cstr(count) & " phone messages.",1
      end if
      end if
      do while count <>0
      i=i+1
      set mfile = messages(count) ' get a reference to a message of type message_file
      hs.speak "Message " & i, true
      hs.MEDIAFilename="C:\Program Files\HomeSeer\messages\"&mfile.filename
      hs.MEDIAPlay
      CurrentMessage=hsp.MBFirstUnreadMessage(HSPLine, MB)

      hsp.MBMarkRead(CurrentMessage)

      do
      ' allow other things to run
      hs.WaitEvents
      a=hs.Devicestatus("M1")
      ' Is Play/Skip pressed, then stop playing message & exit
      if a=2 then
      hs.SetDevicestatus "M1",3
      hs.MEDIAStop
      exit do
      end if
      ' Is message done playing, then exit
      if hs.MEDIAIsPlaying=0 then
      exit do
      end if
      ' Check to see if stop pressed
      c=hs.Devicestatus("M4")
      if c=2 then
      hs.MEDIAStop
      exit do
      end if
      loop
      ' Ask user if they want to delete or save message
      if c<>2 then
      hsp.MBMarkRead(CurrentMessage)
      hs.speak "Please delete or save the message",1
      end if
      ' HSP can't delete file if Media player has file; reselect file to any file
      hs.MEDIAFilename="C:\Program Files\HomeSeer\messages\temp.wav"
      hs.MEDIAStop
      do

      ' allow other things to run
      hs.WaitEvents
      ' exit loop on stop
      c=hs.Devicestatus("M4")
      if c=2 then
      count=0
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M4", 3
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M17", 3
      exit do
      end if
      ' wait for delete choice
      b=hs.Devicestatus("M2")
      if b=2 then
      hsp.MBDeleteMessage mfile.filename
      hs.speak "Message deleted"
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M2", 3 'set off
      exit do
      end if
      ' wait for save choice
      b=hs.Devicestatus("M3")
      if b=2 then
      hs.speak "Message saved"
      hs.SetDevicestatus "M3",3
      exit do
      end if
      'count to automatically exit loop after a period of time
      d=d+1
      if d>20000 then
      d=0
      exit do
      end if

      loop
      ' decrement message counter
      if i = 0 then
      i=count+1
      end if
      count=count-1
      loop
      ' Clean up, clear flags

      hs.speak "Messages Complete",1
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M17",3 'set off Playing Messages flag
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M18",3 'set off phone message flag
      hs.setdevicestring "M18","<img src='Telephonestatic.gif'> No telephone messages"
      hs.SetDeviceStatus "M4",3 'set off stop

      end sub

        Where did you make your edits? I do not see any place the messages are set as being read.

          Since I am sure I have it wrong (and currently have lines in many places trying to figure out where they need to be) I thought it better to post the clean copy. I editted the last post and bolded the new lines.
