Hi Ken, Thanks for the Script.. I can't get it to work though. maybe I am implementing it incorrectly. I am working on a Mac with OS X and 9.2 for Classic mode. I have also tested on a Win 98 PC. The script accurately selects the folder path and assembles the Apple Script but nothing happens after that. Any other ideas?
