Need apple script help with finder

[awingnut]

I'm an applescript and I think this likely a beginner error. I am trying to open a location in order to copy some files. The following works:

set mydata_disk "afp://userid:password@10.0.1.131"
tell application "Finder"
   open location mydata_disk
end tell

The problem is finder puts up a dialog to select the specific disk. I thought the following should work but doesn't:

set mydata_disk "afp://userid:password@10.0.1.131/Mac Data"
tell application "Finder"
   open location mydata_disk
end tell

Can someone tell me how to select the disk in this script? TIA.

I'm not an applescripter but wont this work?

Start a new applescript - press record = go through the procedure normally of opening the disk - then stop recording and check what applescript has recorded
