Hi Neill,

I notice that the scripting error you describe in your first post is:

>    A scripting error has occurred:
>    sh: /VCTTools/bat/hdbgsub.sh: No such file or directory

Yet in another post you add:
    
>    The HydroV_dbg.scpt file invokes the script hdbgsub.sh which resides 
in folder
>    /Volumes/Macintosh HD - Data/VCTTools/bat

Since macOS Catalina, MacOS now splits the operating system and data files 
into two volumes.

see 
<https://www.macworld.com/article/233490/why-you-might-see-a-new-data-disk-in-catalina.html>

So hdbgsub.sh was probably moved to the data files when you upgraded you 
system and is accessible at:
    
    /Volumes/Macintosh HD - Data/VCTTools/bat/hdbgsub.sh
    
Consequently you should replace the old path by this new path in the script 
that calls hdbgsub.sh.

[Hstat Hmsg] = system([root,slash,'Volumes',slash,'Macintosh HD - 
Data',slash,'VCTTools',slash,'bat',slash,'hdbgsub',ext,' ',filename]);
    
HTH
