I'm working on a solution (OS 9 only at present) to automate the off-loading process of digital images from a flash card, and I need to have my script activated when the flash card is inserted into the USB media reader. I thought of attaching a folder action to the desktop folder, but it doesn't look like it's possible. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

You can do it with a stay-open applet...

Alternatively, if you can convince the volume to leave a window open, you can attach an "on opening folder" action to that folder window, and it will fire when the volume mounts.
