When you move files by counting down they don't get reordered.
A good explanation and solution, but why index the files at all?
If you are moving ALL the files in a folder, you can do this ...
tell application "Finder"
repeat until (count files of somefolder) = 0
move (some file of somefolder) to someotherfolder
end repeat
end tell
Other than illustrating loops, why not this:
tell application "Finder" to move files of somefolder to
someotherfolder
-- Michelle
Now, that's a one-liner that I like. Never use a loop you can avoid.
