Finder scripts and writing logs

Hello all.

I consider myself a decent scripter and find myself ready to kill some four
legged animal over my frustration with trying to write a log file entry..


Here is my issue.

I have some os 9 scripts which move postscript files around and help direct
traffic for a prepress operation. They change the name (for future process
initiation) and copy the files to a server. A log file and or entry is also
generated for the transaction for tracking purposes.

I have set two properties thepath and thelog. I want to open for access file
(alias (thepath&thelog as text)) with write permission, then write an entry
and close the log. I get a message that file document file thelog of folder
x of folder y of disk z can not be made into a file....

Any ideas and the script works a charm in os 9.2.2

Mike
