Since the list server seems to be struggling at the moment, I'm posting this direct, as well as to the list.

I don’t understand what is wrong, the folder’s icon is NOT selected so the cut attempt don’t work.

Hard to say from here, Yvan. As we've discovered previously, there are some significant differences between Panther and Tiger in terms of UI scripting - including the structure of certain elements. For example, an info window's icon is identified here as [button 1 of scroll area 1], rather than [button "image" of UI element 6 of UI element 5].


With that qualification, the 'select' statement actually succeeds here - unless a text field is already selected. However, this works much more consistently:

---------
set value of attribute "AXfocused" of [whatever the target UI element happens to be] to true
---------


May not do the trick for you - but possibly worth a try...
