Know the feeling. Not sure what the best way to do it is these days (I work in Python via it Carbon API wrappers - I assume you're working in Obj-C/Cocoa; if you're in C/Carbon you'll need to do it differently); maybe start with a CFURL, extract a CFData, then pack it into an NSAppleEventDescriptor using descriptorWithDescriptorType:data: as typeFileURL (some useful stuff on that here <http://developer2.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn2022.html>). Best place to ask is AS Implementors list <http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/applescript-implementors>.
