hi bert

do shell script "touch /PATHTOFILE"

do shell script "mv /PATHTOFILE /PATHTOFILE/NEWNAME"

best regards,jan

I am also interested in example code how to change the filename with do shell script . . .

Hello,

I have a simple Finder statement to change the modification date of a file. See below. Every now and then (can't tell why) the task errors.I was wondering: How can I perform same task without talking to the Finder (do shell script bla bla....)? Can anyone help?

set D to current date

tell application "Finder"

set modification date of alias "Macintosh HD:Users:bert:Desktop:Testfolder:week_47.txt" to D

end tell
