Script for folder names of session

Hi,

i am trying to script a new session. Not really into applescript, just did some small ones like creating some kind of folders and subfolders.
Works fine, but i cannot get it to change the names of the subfolders capture or output.
Part of looks like this:

tell application "Capture One 10"
set newSession to make new document with properties {name:dasDatum & "_" & text returned of dialogInfo1 & "_P0" & dialogInfo2, path:sessionPath}

Tried with some phrases found, but nothing worked so far. Searched the whole forum without success. Perhaps someone can help me out?

  Rest of the code - perhaps helpful for someone:
  
  set d to current date
set derTag to text -2 thru -1 of ("0" & d's day)
set Monat to word 3 of ((current date) as text)
set MonatsListe to {January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December}

repeat with i from 1 to 12

if d's month = item i of MonatsListe then
set MM to text -2 thru -1 of ("0" & i)
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
set Jahr to ((year of d) as text)
set dasDatum to Jahr & "" & MM & "" & derTag


display dialog "Welcher Fotograf bist Du?" default answer "Dein Nachname"
copy the result to text_returned
set dialogInfo1 to result

set correctEntry to false
repeat while correctEntry is false

set textToDisplay to "In welchem Studio (1-11) arbeitest Du jetzt?"
display dialog textToDisplay default answer "1-11 / 7WW / 0 für Location"
set dialogInfo2 to text returned of the result

if dialogInfo2 = 0 then
set dilogInfo2 to "Location"
set correctEntry to true
end if

if dialogInfo2 = "7WW" then
set correctEntry to true
set dialogInfo2 to "7WW"
end if

if dialogInfo2 is not "7WW" then

try
set dialogInfo2 to dialogInfo2 as integer

set correctEntry to true

on error

try
set dialogInfo2 to dialogInfo2 as number
display dialog "Du hast keine ganze Zahl eingegeben."

on error
display dialog "Statt einer ganzen Zahl hast Du Text eingegeben."
end try

end try

if dialogInfo2 > 11 then
set correctEntry to false
end if

if dialogInfo2 > 11 then
display dialog "Bitte eine Zahl zwischen 1-11 eingeben."
end if


if dialogInfo2 < 0 then
set correctEntry to false
end if
if dialogInfo2 < 0 then
display dialog "Bitte eine Zahl zwischen 1-11 eingeben."
end if

end if

end repeat

tell application "Capture One 10" to run
activate
tell application "Capture One 10"
set defaultLocation to path to desktop
set sessionName to dasDatum

if dialogInfo2 = 0 then
tell application "Capture One 10"
set newSession to make new document with properties {name:dasDatum & "_" & text returned of dialogInfo1 & "_A", path:sessionPath}

end tell

end if

if dialogInfo2 is not 0 then
tell application "Capture One 10"
set newSession to make new document with properties {name:dasDatum & "_" & text returned of dialogInfo1 & "_P0" & dialogInfo2, path:sessionPath}
end tell
end if

tell application "Capture One 10" to run
activate
display dialog "Dein heutiger Produktionsordner wurde auf dem Schreibtisch angelegt." buttons {"OK"} default button "OK"

end tell

end

  The Capture One Document has the setable properties captures and output, which are the names (type text or file) used for Capture and Output.
  
  I would start with a test script to show these proprerties:
  
  tell application "Capture One 12" to tell current document to set Var1 to {captures, output} of it
log Var1
  
  The command "Choose folder" gives the folder name in to correct format.
  
  so:
  
set theOutput to choose folder "select the Output Folder"
tell application "Capture One 12" to tell current document to set its captures to theOutput

  It is a little confusing that the Applescript says that the properties are of type file or text.
  
  When you do get the output property, it is of type file
  
  But if you do convert the new folder reference to type file, as in
  set theOutput to (choose folder "select the Output Folder") as text,
  
  then Capture One has an error if you try to set its output property to this.
