Thanx A Bunch...

Sorry for being so dramatic in my last post "Last request..."

I had posted the same basic question a number of times and had no response,
however Mr. Goodman was very helpful. The Retrospect suggestions kind of
defeat my purpose... We do retrospect the network, I am looking for a
desktop, individual user solution... not so complicated...

Here is my current status...

Following Mr. Goodman's advice I'm at this point...

property search_folder : "Kevin's Drive : apple menu items : recent
documents"

property destfolder : "Kevin's Drive : work related doc's"

set itemlist to items of search_folder

repeat with aFile in itemlist

tell application "Finder" to copy aFile to destfolder

end repeat

However this returns a "results dialog box" with all the words in quotes
broken down into individual words... This looks like it might work, but it
isn't...

Steve, I know I've kinda butchered your original work, but we don't have
akua sweets osax, I assumed I could still save it as an osax... but I got
the same results I've listed here...

thanx...
