Hi Stefan,
That worked like a gem :) Thanks a lot.
I had another question:
Would it be possible to create an alias for a non-existent file ?
I mean say an alias file.alias pointing to a file xyzfile which is not present on the file-system.
Something like at a later point in time, if I create the file xyzfile, file.alias must point to it.
I want to use this in a data backup/restore application, where an alias may be restored without its target, or the target may be restored after the alias.
Using the program written currently, the alias creation would fail if the target does not exist.
Thanks,
Rohan

You want to use fileURLWithPath: instead of URLWithString:.
