OS 10.6.2.

This (portion of) script ,after five years of using it, fails. What has changed?

on run
set myFolder to choose folder
tell me to open {myFolder}
end run

on open (droppedItems)
repeat with index from 1 to the count of droppedItems

-- display dialog (count of droppedItems) & " " & index & " " & droppedItems as string

set currentItem to (item index of droppedItems)

It used to be that the items in a drop list were aliases. But no longer in Snow. They are now class 'bmrk', I think. Try adding as alias after the last line, above, as in ...

set currentItem to (item index of droppedItems) as alias
