How can i show only one button with "Ask for confirmation" action in Automator.

I write little Automator apps for the office and like to have a confirmation of what the action has achived to tell the user then just have a "Quit" button, all i need is to display the one button from the "Ask for Confirmation action" but even if i delete the text in the "Cancel" area so its greyed out, on the Snow Leopard and Leopard systems the Cancel button still shows when the app is run.

That is just the way that particular action is written - even on Lion it winds up crashing half the time if you remove the text from one of the buttons. You can look for a third party action, or use a Run AppleScript action to put up the dialog instead, for example:


onrun {input, parameters}



display alert"alert"message"your message"



returninput

endrun
