Yes, you can do this but it would require more than a little non-simple code.

An much easier approach is to write some code that loads the action set, runs the desired action, then deletes the action set.

The code that would help you in either case is in xtools.

Thank you very much for the reply. it is very helpful but it would more if you can give some clue or logic about 'non simple' code i have good knowledge of programming and i can understand scripts.

thanks in adv.

Take a look at xtools/xapps/ActionEvalDemo.jsx. It does basically what you want. You would run it in non-interactive mode.

It can be boiled down to one line:

Code: Select allActionEval.runAction("~/Desktop/XActions.atn", "Alert");

I'd forgotten that I had written this.

BTW, the non-simple code that I was referring to is in xtools/xlib/ActionEval.jsx if you're interested. I haven't used or tested this in years so I have no idea what shape it's in.
