This works for me. It compiles and runs and works.

It does not work for me.
"An identifier can not come after this identifier" this identifier being Disk Volume. Did you record it and it worked as well?
What is the OS and SE that you are using

Try installing the latest cabon version.

Latest carbon version meaning? SE 1.5.5 or there is anything more recent?

Unstable? I have yet to have a crash with it and I've been pounding away.

ES

That definitely does it! Lets exchange computers ....
Look, I've been crashing just by keying in a bit faster. I have very few non Apple extensions, mind you.

Do you have Multiple Users enabled?

Under OS 9.1, if you have Multiple Users enabled, the Startup Disk control
panel is protected from being tampered with by unauthorised users - just
like under Mac OS X PB.

No, I do not. Does it work for you, the Startup Disk I mean?
I know 9.0 SD is NOT scriptable, may be 9/0/4 it is, I'll check it out.

Thanks for your input!
