Hi Tiemo, Have you tried to use the POSIX path in applescript? POSIX path of file "Macintosh HD:foo:myFile" HTH, Regards, -- -Zryip TheSlug- wish you the best! 8) http://www.aslugontheroad.co.cc _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
