Save All Open Files

Using CS3. I've created an action to Crop and straighten, and I'm using it on Batch options to split hundereds of scanned images.

I managed to find two old scripts from c.pfaffenbichler (much appreciated, thanks) which I've managed to adapt a little into a single one, which save the open files. In essence it works perfectly, although it always saves it to the default location (in the original it was the desktop, I've amended it to a Folder on my images disk called Split).

I'd be grateful if someone could help by explaining why the initial save to the source directory does not work.

many thanks
