Thanks Mark:

I'm still not clear on how to get this to work.  I've got a bunch of audio
files with long names and spaces in the their names.  I've tried setting the
fileNames to straight filenames, URLencoded filenames, etc, using URL forms
"file:" and "binfile:" and nothing seems to work.

Am I missing something?
