Jamin,
Getting the local trash I can do, but each volume has its own trash folder
I understand, so if the item is on another disk, the findfolder approach
fails for those if the pouch is a guide.

The Apple event approach sounds nice and the way to go though...

How might I do this? Anybody?  (sending events is new to me)
