I'm trying to write an Applescript to delete any selected column that contains no text (or other content). I want this because I often make the mistake of pasting text containing line medial tabs without using my paste lines literally script.

The problem is that I just can't get OmniOutliner to delete a column no matter what method I use.

I've tried "delete", "remove", remove each one separately by id, remove them all in one statement.

I've had the same problems trying to write an Applescript to delete all of the blank rows.

The following script will delete all of the selected columns.

tell application "OmniOutliner Professional"
	tell front document
		set theCols to every selected column
		repeat with theCol in theCols
			delete theCol
		end repeat
	end tell
end tell
