Why are you using get on a literal string?  That makes no sense.
Try just (POSIX file "blah").

Thanks Mark, that fixed the first problem , sorry my Applescript knowlegde is VERY limited.

Now how do I create alias of

"/Users/paul/Music/AliasTest/testalias.mp3" instead of the /user/paul/Desktop/test.mp3"

I tried this

set theAlias to make new alias (POSIX file ("/Users/paul/Music/AliasTest/testalias.mp3")to theFile

but it doesn't compile

thanks Paul
