I'm using 10.2.3.
Here's the segment of the script:
on writefile(s, subj)
try
tell application "Finder" to activate
set p to "10:Desktop:digest:"
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
