Mike - I've eliminated all spaces in the path but thanks, that's always
a good thing to check.
At this point nothing I do flips the Attributes from "A" to "HSA". I've
changed the minus to a plus sign and tried Klaus' concatenation syntax
but still no change in the Attributes.
Maybe I should also be changing the visibility of the file first. When I
set the folder icon manually the system does that. Do you know of a way
to change visibility via the shell function?

oh yep, and as klaus says, if theres a space somewhere in the path, you'll
need to force quotes around it, or use shortfilepath() to obviate the need.

Hi Ray,
did you try with QUOTES?

Klaus - thanks for the idea. Just to check my method of concatenation,
the exact command I'm using is:
get shell("attrib -HSA "&desktopIniPath&"") -- where
desktopIniPath is the path to the file
get shell("attrib -HSA "& QUOTE & desktopIniPath & QUOTE)
It doesn't work and I see no change in the file's Attributes, Type or
Size. Livecode returns nothing in the result.

Best
