Again I say, "If you use the '@' character instead of ' the moviepath', you will not
need to specify different path delimiters for
Mac and PC!" If you don't believe me, look it up! (under "@")

I've answered this a couple of times...this would only work for the mac. You
need to do different path chars for each. The pc is "\", the mac is ":"
Do this:
tchar = the last char of the moviepath
member("moviename").filename = the moviepath & "moviesfolder" & tChar &
"moviename.mov"
This would work for both platforms as on the mac it would be
CD:moviesfolder:moviename.mov
CD\moviesfolder\moviename.mov
