Kee,

I am doing that right now, if you want I can build a sample stack for  
you and send to you tomorrow (it's 2:53 AM now, am not thinking well)

There's a message called AppleEvent that you can use to handle events.
There's "send to program" that you can use to send events.
There's "request from program" that also sends events.
There's "reply to program" that does the reply.

cheers.
