Hi Trevor
You can check if a folder exists like this:
tell application "Finder" if not ("Macintosh HD:Users:tdevore:t�st" exists) then make new folder at "Macintosh HD:Users:tdevore" with properties {name:"t�st"} end if make new folder at "Macintosh HD:Users:tdevore:t�st" with properties {name:"t�sting"} end tell
It further create a folder on my desktop....

I am pleased you now have two working solutions. I have filed them away for my own information. You may have a third in Trevor's above suggestion as well. It worked for me when I tried it, so I did a little bit of more testing, naming non-existent Volumes both in Applescript and using Rev's create folder. Applescript gave an execution error but with Rev the folder was still created but in the current default path, which in your case may coincidentally have been your desktop.
No need to reply to this conjecture but it might be helpful in a future case. Usually, if an experienced helper (e.g. Scott, not to mention Trevor and others) says something works, it is because they have already proven it to themselves, so it makes sense to look for other possible differences in the testing.

Hmmmm. D�sol�, mais I am no AppleScript expert (just barely learning) so I don't know what the problem is. It works here. Scott seemed to have a solution however.
