It did work on my earlier version (I've been running Snow Leopard since Sept and the script came out after that. So something has altered.

I get the following error now:
Howard,

Did the script app work in Snow Leopard before, but then stop working?

When it worked, were you running a version of Snow Leopard other than 10.6.2?

Looking at the PDF you attached, I see Code Type: PPC (Translated), making me think the app is being changed from native Intel code (which I believe it contains) to Power PC code. It's almost as if it's executing in Rosetta.

At the moment, I haven't the faintest idea what to do to correct it. If I were running Snow Leopard, I'd try saving the original script in Script Editor as an app again, just to see if that helps. Perhaps whyzee would like to try that and report back?

Cheers,
Eric

Edit: After I posted that, it occurred to me that (and I may be wrong about this) an AppleScript when saved as an app may not contain native code. It may consist of bytecodes that still have to be interpreted on the host computer.
