Just a newbie surprise.
I have tried an elementary script to delete temp files.
It goes like this:
---
tell application "Finder"
try
delete file "tempA" of desktop
delete file "tempB" of desktop
delete file "tempC" of desktop
end try
end tell
---
-->
tempA is deleted
tempB & tempC are not

No answer but I'd add an "on error" to the try loop or remove the
"try" altogether. I'll bet Finder thinks it has some error that you're
not seeing.
Bingo !
If I remove the "try", it works fine.
2 subsidiary questions:
- 1 Why is this "try" a problem ?
- 2 If I remove the "try", I am going to get an error message when one
of the 3 temp files is not found. How can I avoid it ? "On error " ? If
yes, would be the syntax ?

Also, you didn't say what system version you were using. It worked
fine for me on 10.3.2.
I use MacOS 10.3.2 to.
Thanks a lot Doug and Chris.
Yours.
