With any file I/O routines it's essential to check "the result", and 
very helpful to also use "sysError" to find out what the OS is trying to 
tell us about why something went wrong:

    put url tSrcURL into tData
    if the result is not empty then
       answer the result &"("& sysError() &")"
    end if
