"Launch Editor" bug - any workarounds?

Hi all,
I reported a bug I'm having with launching the designated "editor"
application from the Inspector (Bug # 70 in RunRev's Bugzilla
database), but have not received a reply yet - the RunRev team are
really, really busy with higher priority bugs I know! I'm not
complaining, I swear! :-)
I was just wondering whether anyone else has experienced the same bug,
and whether there is a known workaround that we, silly newbies, just
fail to see...
Many thanks for any suggestions! I'm trying to convert an old Hypercard
stack that has *LOTS* of pictures in it, and manually having to
copy-paste them into Photoshop is wearing me down...
A copy of the bug report follows:
"In the 'General Preferences' of Revolution I have Adobe Photoshop 7.0
selected
as my 'Image Editor' app. I'm using MacOS X (10.2).
In any stack, when I click on a picture (one created with the Revolution
painting tools), and click on the 'edit' button in the Inspector (to
launch
Photoshop and edit the picture), I get the following warning:
"You haven't selectec an external image editor application, or I
couldn't find
the editor selected. Would you like to select one? (Nothe the editor
you select
must be able to handle PNG format images.)"
I have the option of cancelling, or 'selecting now'. I click on "Select
Now".
A system-standard navigation dialogue box opens, and allows me to select
Photoshop 7 once again. In the navigation dialogue box, I click 'Open'.
A warning message comes up. It says:
"There was a problem launching the editor. no such program"
The only button available is 'Cancel'. Damn, that's frustrating!"
Regards,
