Hi,
I am trying to process files that contains "%%" and the simple test script does not work. (running on OS 9.2.2).

Set efile to "EEHD:efile9.txt"
If efile contains "%%" then
Display dialog "Found"
End if

Also tried
Set efile to "EEHD:efile9.txt"
Set SrhText to "%%"
If efile contains SrhText then
Display dialog "Found"
End if


Thanks in advance.
Ruby
