It uses an osax, namely 'offset', which is not a 3rd-party osax, it's part of Apple's Standard Additions. Standard Additions 1.5.5 which come with OS 9.1 require that you leave all the Security modules in the Extensions folder. You have evidently removed them. The best fix is to use Software Update control panel to upgrade to AppleScript 1.6, which will also upgrade Standard Additions to 1.6. v1.6 ha= s other improvements too. With 1.6, only the 'mount volume' command, not all the other Standard Additions such as 'offset', need the security extensions= . --=20 Paul Berkowitz ------------------------------
