Matthew,
It does work on the desktop machine, and usually on the server.
What I really want is it to look at the first two characters to see if it
contains "DT", if it does it will also check to see if it contains "_cdot"
or "_spot", if it contains DT and -cdot, it moves to a certain folder, if it
contains DT and spot, it moves to a specific folder, and if it contains DT
and no _cdot or _spot it moves to a specific folder. I tried, but not sure
if I am getting it correct.
This is grabbing files from a universal incoming folder, just grabbing files
that are named with DT in the first two spots.
Maybe this will work:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
repeat with aFile in added_items
repeat
set size_check1 to size of (info for aFile)
do shell script "sleep 10"
set size_check2 to size of (info for aFile)
if size_check1 is equal to size_check2 then exit repeat
end repeat
tell application "Finder"
try
set name_ to name of aFile
if name_ begins with "DT" then
if name_ contains "_cdot" then
tell application "Finder"
try
copy aFile to folder "ServerFolderA"
on error err
display dialog err
end try
end tell
move aFile to folder "MacHD:Copied" with replacing
else if name_ contains "_spot" then
tell application "Finder"
try
copy aFile to folder "ServerFolderB"
on error err
display dialog err
end try
end tell
move aFile to folder "MacHD:Copied" with replacing
else
tell application "Finder"
try
copy aFile to folder "ServerFolderC"
on error err
display dialog err
end try
end tell
move aFile to folder "MacHD:Copied:" with replacing
end if
end if
end try
end tell
end repeat
end adding folder items to
