You’ll probably get more responses if you post the Applescript code you are using for others to look at. Also if you have access to a web server zip the text file up and post a link to it. It could be in the coercion to a number you mention.
I basically trashed ALL the original files I was using to test and read/write with. I generated new files with the Garmin and everything seems to be working now. I still have to test it at home where it all started but it all looks good so far.
I think I actually busted one of the files during a particular test phase and that caused my whole test chain to break. Go figure…
Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll keep them in mind for future issues.
Will report back if I figure out something !
