can someone give me insight why this gives an error, google doesn't
come up with an clear answer :(
Mac OS X 10.2.3
tell application "Finder"
set pathstring to ((the path to desktop) as text) & "test"
set theNote to open for access file pathstring with write permission
write "test, test" to theNote
close access theNote
end tell
Try saying (path to desktop folder) or taking it out of the "Finder"
tell block, which it doesn't really need to be in. The reason it's
failing the way it is now is because the desktop is an object in the
Finder. So, apparently the Finder's misinterpreting your command.
Thanks,
