Couldn’t find anything in the forums. Just wondering if anyone has something like in the title they’d be willing to share.

I'm an Evernote Legacy user.
Here's a sample Applescript

tell application "Evernote"
     set fileBackup to "/Users/DTLow/Desktop/test"    << replace with your filename
     set fileBackup to POSIX path of fileBackup
     set theNotes to get selection
     export theNotes to fileBackup format HTML
end tell

When I try to compile this script I get an error. (screenshot attached)

It happens on the third line with "theNote"

I edited the post and replaced the script with a clearer example

A continued Thanks for your help. The script compiled. I clipped a new page and ran the script. The results were not as expected. Might this be possible because I have Evernote 7.14? I'm pretty certain I can grab an older copy of EN from a backup.

I'm running the direct download Legacy version   
What results did you get?

Attached is a screenshot of the original note then what the script output is. Can I export from the script as ENEX?

OK. So in your script, I changed "export theNotes to fileBackup format HTML" to "export theNotes to fileBackup format ENEX" 

And in "set fileBackup to "/Users/DTLow/Desktop/test" I changed test to Newest-Note.enex. That makes it so I can import that to Apple Notes.

One last question (I hope🌞) what would I have to do so the file-name.enex was today's date & time instead of Newest-Note?
