Hi again kerry - these scripts are there to show my problem, as you say a file should be created and then deleted so when the playhead returns to frame 2 after running the button script it should then do this again BUT if i have selected a file from a directory below the movies directory by either buddy api or Mui xtra ie gresult=the moviepath/somefolder/somefile , then fileIO returns 'file already exists' - try it for yourself and see if it happens to you. THe file does not exist we've deleted it , but it keeps telling me it does if i use either of the other two xtras in the way explained. thats my problem, hope that is clearer. Charles - the order change has no effect. I cant see either fileXtra4 or PropSave Xtra on macromedias xtra listing - where are they available ? cheers for your time Lee Blinco Multimedia Developer AVR Productions +44 (0)1462 819603
