I have used the following line of script successfully: open document file "NEAL'S LIBRARY.FP7" of folder "FILEMAKER 8 FILES" of folder "Documents" of folder "nealnt" of folder "users" of startup disk. * I recently moved files around as the file is no longer on the startup disk but on a HD labeled Macintosh hd. I tried changing startup disk to Macintosh hd but this did not work. Error was: Expected end of line, etc. but found identifier. Changed to disk macintosh hd . Got error message: Cant get folder "FILEMAKER 8 FILES" of folder "Documents" of folder "nealnt" of folder "Users" of disk "Macintosh HD". * So how should I change this line of applescript? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
