Entity Paul Berkowitz spoke thus:

>> Now I am saying:
>>
>> tell application "Finder"
>> set identityList to every folder of folder ,
>> "Apple:Documents:Microsoft User Data:Identities:";

> alias ((path to startup disk as string) & "Documents:")
OK, so I am saying:
set identityList to every folder of alias ((path to startup disk as string)
& "Documents:Microsoft User Data:Identities:";)

which gives:
Finder got an error: Can't get alias "Apple:Desktop
Folder:Documents:Microsoft User Data:Identities:";.

when what I need is:
{
folder "Rachel Cogent" of folder "Identities" of folder "Microsoft User
Data" of folder "Documents" of startup disk of application "Finder"
}

What's wrong here?
