I've sorted out my other problems, but this one is still happening:
In text field "applescript"-
tell application "QuickTime Player"
activate
blah blah bits of applescript code
end tell
In a button-
on mouseUp
put text of field "applescript" into theScript
do theScript as AppleScript
end mouseUp
If QT is open then it works fine, if QT is not open then Classic
launches and the OS 9 version of QT opens.
This has the same effect with all Apple apps with the same name in X
and 9, such as QT, iMovie, Disk Copy, iTunes. If the app is not
already open in X then the Classic environment launches.
It does NOT have the same effect for non-Apple apps such as Internet
Explorer or Stuffit Expander.
???
Tested with Rev 1.1.1 on OS X 10.2.1 & Rev 2.1 trial on 10.2.6.
Any help with this would be great, it's getting really annoying!
