Here my script:

move (document file Namen of (folder "Praxis" of folder "CloudStation" of folder "Documents" of folder "thomas" of folder "Users" of "Macintosh HD")) to (folder " Abschluss aktuell" of folder "Praxis" of folder "CloudStation" of folder "Documents" of folder "thomas" of folder "Users" of "Macintosh HD")

Where ist my mistake??

Use the following:

move (document file Namen of (folder "Praxis" of folder "CloudStation" of folder "Documents" of folder "thomas" of folder "Users" of disk "Macintosh HD")) to (folder " Abschluss aktuell" of folder "Praxis" of folder "CloudStation" of folder "Documents" of folder "thomas" of folder "Users" of disk "Macintosh HD")

If this helps you: my used app for writing is "RagTime" and the first part of my script works well:

tell application "RagTime 6.6"

activate

set Namen to value of cell "C43" of table "R-Berechnung" of document 1 & ".rtd"

closedocument 1 savingyes

end tell

That may explain a lot.

set Namen to value of cell "C43" of table "R-Berechnung" of document 1 & ".rtd"

This returns a list consisting of two values - one is the value of the specified cell and the second is the string '.rtd'.

Assuming that the cell in question holds the base filename, and you're trying to append '.rtd' to it, try something like:

set Namen to ((value of cell "C43" of table "R-Berechnung" of document 1) & ".rtd") as text

This will make sure you have a text object to pass to the Finder for the filename.

error "„Finder“ got an error: {«constant ****Empt», \".rtd\"} can nor change in type integer." number -1700 from {«constant ****Empt», ".rtd"} to integer
