Jason,
Getting lists of files without extensions never brought up the error
-43. Which is not to say it always worked. Trying to get a name from the
list would often crash the script, about half of the time. The line
below would be the last thing in the Event Log before it went down. It
wasn't consistent on which file it crashed on. Sometimes the first,
middle, last etc.
get name of document file "InvPaid Recovered.fp5" of folder
"GRL_InvSystem" of folder "GRL" of folder "Documents" of folder "john"
of folder "Users" of startup disk
This does bring up the question of what does the Finder need in order to
succeed? I am passing Finder type references around. Mr Tea intimated
that alias' may be more reliable (sorry if that's not what you were
getting at Mr Tea). The problem is that both can work and both can
crash. There is no clear indication of what causes the problem.
