New files should be created at folders, not at strings.
make new file at folder TheFolder ...
and that solved my puzzle. For whatever reason, my sloppy code lead to
different results depending upon exactly what I did.
Now I'm puzzled again. When I ask Finder to create a file I get to
specify its owner privileges, group privileges, and everyones
privileges. But my wishes seem to be ignored.
I can read the privileges of the file I've created, and I can set them
on an extant file, so it's not as though I can't do it at all.
Here's how I create the file:
make new document file at folder TheFolder with properties
{name:TheFileName, owner privileges:read write, group privileges:read
write, everyones privileges:read write}
thanks again for the help
