Begin forwarded message:
I don't follow this at all, nor do I see what this has to do with
creating an empty file.
If you want to create a new file at a given folder, use this:
set destFile to (choose file name with prompt "prompt text goes here")
This will let the user navigate to the folder he wants (just as with
choose folder) and type the file name he wants.
--> file "Dora:Users:michelle:Documents:my file"
Then you can use GC's save command to save to that file.

This script always saves to the path of the original file and not the
path selected and indicated in the display dialog.
