Greetings, folks!
Whenever I script the opening of any files with more than 63
characters in the name, I get an error:
An invalid file name was specified (MacOS Error code: -37)
for example:
a file named "I Once Had a Sparrow Alight Upon My
Shoulderaaaabbbbbzzz1234567" will open
but
a file named "I Once Had a Sparrow Alight Upon My
Shoulderaaaabbbbbzzz12345678" will not open
Thoughts on how to resolve this? I can click on the file and it
will open just fine; I can also open the file via an open file
dialog box, but it will return the error when called in a script.
Thanks!

P.S. FYI, the file I'm referencing is a quote by Henry David Thoreau:
“I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment,
while I was hoeing in a village garden, and I felt that I was
more distinguished by that circumstance than I should have been
by any epaulet I could have worn.”
