I haven't had any problems ... could you post the script?
An interesting note, this same script actually completely locks up another
computer when it runs on a few month old G4/Gigabit. If I had any clue as to
what a Type 99 error was (in plain English, that is) that would be helpful.
Also, any recommendations on a scripting editor that will step through this
line-by-line so I can see exactly where the error is coming from? Thx.

set this_file to choose file
-- the FTP URL of the receiving directory, preceded with ,
the user name, colon, and password
set this_URL to "
