I found this script which is supposed to work, but does not in my case.  I don’t know why.  It compiles and it creates the “Done” Folder, but I don’t get any zipped files

Anybody have any ideas?

Doesn't work here, either, Todd. If you have a copy of DropZip* handy, you could use that:


------------

property z : "Zipped Items Folder"
on adding folder items to s after receiving l
tell application "Finder" to tell folder s to if exists folder z then
set f to folder z as alias
else
set f to (make new folder at it with properties {name:z}) as alias
end if
if l is not {f} then tell application "DropZip" to zip l into f with individually
end adding folder items to


------------
