The problem must be the Portfolio code.
I do get the correct return from the "tell Finder" part of the script,
so I've tried to change the line in the Portfolio part of the script:
set field "Comment" of record i of front gallery to the FileComment as text
to
set field "Comment" of record i of front gallery to {"Blabla"} as text,
and then it works fine.
Somehow I can't get Portfolio to accept the different comments for my "FileComment"
