as you stated you need two backslashes after Menu and before the space


do shell script "/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend"

DOH!
I guess that's why the original only showed one slash. The preview shows correctly when posting but the final posted one is not right. Thought I'd be clever and try to put three slashes in to show two....but no luck

Rob...Please fix this and delete my posts.

P.S. How come I can't delete my own posts?

I think you need 4 slashes to show two. Test: \\

Actually, if you use the [ code ] tags (without spaces), as noted in red above the comment input box, then you can use one backslash for each one that you need to appear. Hence, it's supposed to look like this:

do shell script "/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend"

-rob.
