Need Help with scripting for Automator/AppleScript.

Question

Hi everybody,
I am building a small app for my mac, What I need is a script that can rename a file that I drop on it.
and example being:
example.jpg
(when I drop it on the app, I want the app to change the filename of the document to "Image.jpg"
I have tried this with Automator, but it requires that I specify the file to be changed, what I need is something that will change the name of any file I drag onto it.
I am using it for application specific files.
Kind regards,
Pete.

Answer 1

Open the Script Editor in the
/Applications/AppleScript/ folder and enter the
following:
on open(the_file)
tell application "Finder"
set name of the_file to "Image"
end tell
end open
Save this script as an application.

this script compiled correctly; however when run it returned the following error "Can't set name of (the_file) to "Image.jpg"
I am also given the option of editing the script or just quitting.
thanks for your help
