Yes! I needed to restart! (I had been Relaunching the Finder.)

I need to do this (in 10.5.5) ...

but I keep getting the error -54, "File permission error". I've checked permissions and I (the current admin user) do have read- write permission.

That's the message when another process on the same machine already opened the file with that same AppleScript command. I wonder whether the files opened by a process close magically when it quits. I would think that no.

That's what I was thinking, so the original code said this ...

	try
		close access htmlFile
	end try
	try
		set refNr to (open for access htmlFile with write permission)

so I shouldn't be getting the error for that reason. Perhaps I need to restart?
