yeah, thought about this one, but actually want it to work with the original file name... > > I used tempFolder.child(originalFile.name) but it doesn't find the >> file because the long filename (Mac OS 10.4.x) gets truncated. > >It should be TrueChild, not Child, and what do you mean the long >filename gets truncated?

Or, are you using some >ancient version of RB? no, recent... Rb '07r1 Here's the actual path information: Original filename: CX default cal 9_16_05-4270D40.icc Filename in RB : CX default cal 9_16_0#7B558.icc It copies over just fine but, as you can see, I don't have access to the correct file name, so I can't directly access the file. I can hunt through the folder using .item, etc but I want something that's going to work in general use. I'll try TrueChild but I don't think that's the issue do you?
