The solution to any who are interested was to slip the folder action into the same file as the main module. They compile together, and they run together, though an old problem resurfaces. I will also be sending this to the Script Debugger list as that is the program I am running. Whenever I drop file XYZ into the associated folder, the first time I do so file XYZ now runs quite nicely. If, after file XYZ is processed I drag it out of the sensitive folder, then drag it back in, the script does not run; not even a little bit. Here's the rub: if I recompile the script, resave it in the Folder Action folder, and then drop file XYZ back into the sensitive folder, it runs! This makes me think that something is not getting reset, or some piece of memory might be getting corrupted, or something equally obscure, but how to track it down? If anyone has an idea, please let me know what it is. TIA.
