Setting the 'Open With'

[Ray Horsley]

Thanks Marty.  It's just slightly more complicated than that, though.   
In my case I've got a zip file which a script in my standalone has  
downloaded.  I'd like to decompress it automatically from the same  
script but I don't know where "Archive Utility" is or what it's named  
on the end users machine.  On my machine it's System/Library/Core  
Services/Archive Utility.app but on a friend's machine I noticed it's  
named "BOMArchive Utility" instead of "Archive Utility".  Any  
suggestions?

Thanks,

Ray Horsley
