Thanks to all!, I get it now, and it is all working. Cool thing is the Dropbox is shared across all my machines, so now I can have my urls easily, on all machines.

Also trying this and still not getting anywhere:
( Dropbox does exist in my home folder )

set homeFolder to (path to home folder from user domain)
tell application "Finder"
	set someFolder to (folder "Dropbox" of homeFolder) as alias
	set dest to someFolder
end tell

So far, we have ...

	set homeFolder to (path to home folder from user domain)
	tell application "Finder"
		set dest to (folder "Dropbox" of homeFolder) as alias
	end tell
	display dialog dest as string

Note the change I made. The 'set dest to ...' line will error if the folder "Dropbox" does not exist in the specified location. If that's where you want the new internet locator file saved, then you WILL have to create this folder manually.
