Putting the complete name of the folder in a variable doesn't work either.

Any suggestions?

This works for me:

set dt to (path to desktop as text)

tell application "Finder"

set theFile to the selection

set theFile to item 1 of theFile

duplicate theFile to folder (dt & "•Originals:")

end tell

I think we'll need to know how you set the variable "theFile"

I've noticed lately that the paranoid fear of computers becoming intelligent and taking over the world has almost entirely disappeared from the common culture. Near as I can tell, this coincides with the release of MS-DOS.
