I think the problem with the initial window is a system problem.

Me, too. But, I did not have this problem with 10.6.5 last week. The problem started when I reinstalled 10.6.5 and may have been caused by the method of installation.

You may be able to fix this by bringing up view options and changing to icon view; then close and open a new window; then change to list view and make your changes; then close and open a new window.  (Maybe - I saw this fix somewhere on the net in the last few months).

Tried this, but it did not work.

In any case I think you've discovered a very bad bug in the Finder.  If I start with the front window sorted by NAME in REVERSE-ORDER I can't get the scripted changes to stick unless I include the block with the bolded comment.  The triangle in the column heading changes properly, but the column itself doesn't re-sort unless I include that block.

I will try your script later. Thanks for your comments.
