The "url("file:" xyz) syntax does ecactly this in a one-liner:
...
open file xyz for read
read from file xyz ...
close file xyz...

Klaus, Ans Simon,
Give me about 30 min and I will post the relevant cards of the stack.
I guess I don't quite understand the syntax.

Hi Tom,
I copied your specialFolderPath stuff from the above posting and it didn't work!
Not sure why... it reads correctly.
So I redid it by hand
Code: Select all
if there is not a directory (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/sellnet") then
create folder (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/sellnet")
end if
set the defaultFolder to (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/sellnet")
Now it works!
On the desktop are you getting a folder called sellnet in your Documents folder?
weeeee found it!
create folder (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/sellnet")
NOT create folder (specialFolderPath("documents" & "/sellnet"))
