Hello;
    I've lost the author's name of the script below, but need help with
customizing it. It saves messages as text (I use it for mailing list
digests). What I can't get it to do is save to a folder I choose as opposed
to my desktop.

Here's the language in question:

on writefile(s, subj)
    try
        tell application "Finder" to activate
        set p to path to desktop folder as string
         set fn to makeName(subj)
        set fileRef to open for access (file (p & fn)) with write permission
        write s to fileRef
        close access fileRef
        tell application "Finder"
            activate
            set the file type of file (p & fn) to tcode
            set the creator type of file (p & fn) to ccode
        end tell
    on error theErr
        display dialog theErr
    end try
end writefile
 
When I run the script with a different location, I get an error saying "bad
name for file." 
Anyone know how I should correctly specify the 2nd line (the one where I set
p)?

Thanks for any help...
