Every example I see goes like this: set filepath to "disk:folder:filename" tell application "URL Access Scripting" activate download "http://blahdiblah.html" to filepath end tell I think I've even done it that way, although I can't find an example in my library. But it gives me "URL Access Scripting got an error: Some data was the wrong type." I've tried to alias filepath to file filepath to file alias filepath and probably a few others. Or is it complaining about the contents of the page it's downloading? I've tried a couple of different pages with the same result. -- Bill Steele [log in to unmask]
