G'day marc

> (1) Which version of AppleScript did the XServe ship with

It's not so much the Xserve as files held on it which are the problem.
to0814.ads is a text file containing newspaper ad data.

The problem is as follows (snipped error trapping):

set thepath to "XServe:to0814.ads" -- our XServe
set theads to read thepath
-> end of file error

but

set thepath to "Torch:to0814.ads" -- our ASIP fileserver
set theads to read thepath

Reads the file without problem.

Changing the extension from .ads to .txt lets the AS work from the Xserve
but it can't be changed as it's required by other parts of our system to
work.

If Chris or anyone else from Apple is listening, I'd be appreciative of any
light you could shed on this or a possible fix.
