Thx to everyone who responded for all the excellent tips. In some
cases it would have taken me quite awhile to discover those ideas. In
other cases I shoulda looked in my Neuburg AppleScript book!
Anyway, I got the basic script working pretty quickly with all the
help. I'm starting to catch onto this stuff a bit.
Thx again,
Ken

As already mentioned, Ken, you could use the 'path to' command from
Standard Additions. In the case of the desktop, any of the following
'path to' variations should work:
path to "desk"
path to desktop
path to desktop folder
<snip>
tell application "Finder" to open file "filename"
