spake thus:
Any ideas on how to make AppleScript handle this location without
complaints?
I’d personnally try throwing some good ol’ shell scripting at it
tell application "Finder" to set theFolder to choose file
set theFolder to quoted form of POSIX path of theFolder
do shell script "open " & theFolder
Thanks Jay. I never thought that when I wish to select a hidden
folder, I was able to use Choose File. I knew that Choose Folder was
unable to do what I wished and didn't search in the cousin tool.
I will just add that there is no need to speak to the Finder to call
Choose File (or Choose Folder ) which is a Standard Additions function.
