Hey Michael,

I don't remember the original thread very clearly.

You did try a POSIX Path too — yes?

I would try:

Alias (apparently failed)

Plain HFS_Path

File HFS_Path

Document HFS_Path

POSIX Path

Posix Files

FURL  --> set theFURL to (path to downloads folder) as «class furl» --> apply
as «class furl» to a file

There are some tips on scripting Excel 2016 here that may or may not offer some
clues.
