Here's an example script:
----
on open (theItems)
tell application "Finder"
set targetFolder to folder ((path to applications folder from system domain as string) & "Test")
repeat with anItem in theItems
move anItem to targetFolder
end repeat
end tell
end open
----

This script doesn't check for duplicates and you have to change the "Test" part to the actual path within the Applications folder. Other than that it works fine.

I cannot seem to find a finder/folder script to move a file from one folder
to another automatically. Does anyone have a script that does this? The deal
is I need to have a script that I can attach to a folder in my public folder
that will move a PDF or PS file to a folder inside my applications folder so
the RIP can process the job.
