Thanks. The 'entire contents' property has always been buggy. You can't use it on folders with lots of subfolders. Find other ways to do what you want, including the 'list folder' command in Standard Additions. I prefer Akua Sweets 'the entries in selectedFolder as alias'. You then need a repeat loop (with either of these) but it's still a zillion times faster than using the Finder. (Make sure you use them outside a Finder tell block.) Some people like Jon Commands' 'walk folders'. Use Software Update control panel to update to AppleScript 1.6. You might be best NOT to update to CarbonLib 1.3.1 while you're there. AS 1.5.5 has other problems. -- Paul Berkowitz ------------------------------
