Make sure to end all folders with " : "

“MacintoshHD:local:GRAPHIC:EPS_FILES:”

thanks, that not the problem, one of the file name has a space character within the name, when i do the do shell script it doesnt find the file

#4 
 set sourceFolder to quoted form of "Macintosh HD:local:GRAPHIC:EPS_FILES"

This will pass on to shell scripts a string with the special characters as a single parameter.
