Could you reproduce here the code portions surrounding the "choose

folder" statement?
This is the start of the script for the second situation.
property Folder2Do : {}
tell application "Finder"
activate
display dialog "You must have the EXCEL Sheet OPEN already" & return &
"If NOT - Cancel now" default button "Cancel"
set Folder2Do to choose folder
end tell
the script then compares the names of the files with the data in the
excel sheet for name verification.
The script didn't run at all on Ricks iMac G4 Panther and it quit
working after choose the "Open" button on a second machine tower G4
Panther.
It worked fine one a third machine G4 running Jaguar.

In your previous post, you didn't speak about a crash.

Which behavior exactly are you encountering?
In the first case - a script for Photoshop - when the "Open" button was
clicked - every image - 87 total - opened in "Preview"
and the script quit running.
in the second case - a script for Excel - the script either didn't run
at all or it quit running after clicking the "Open" button.

Again, I will check this out and let you know.
