Is there somebody with knowledge about AppleScript and Windows files?
Laurent, I'm slightly suspicious about the error (or lack of it) in the
above section of your script.
Error -39 [eofErr] is an end of file error. Does another part of your script
attempt to open/read the file in question and, if so, could this not be
causing the error whenever it arises?
