That's because 'PartA' is a string, so you're trying to make a new folder at
a string, which makes no sense.
Instead you'll need to coerce PartA to a folder or alias reference before
the Finder can use it as a location to create the new folder:
set myNewFolder to make new folder at folder PartA with properties
{name:"Temp"}
