Hi Chen,
If you are trying to run scripts with the application installed in
different places you can get around it like so:
OS9 way:
try
tell application "Finder"
set appName to name of application file id "MSIE"
end tell
on error errMsg
display dialog (errMsg) as string
end try
Then you can ref that application like:
tell appName
// do something
end tell
And if you add a
on run
end run
around the code you don't even need to compile it... just save as text
and do something like
run script file (filename)
Regards, Gary.

Hi Chen,
At the risk of stating the obvious, you did remember to reinstall
Microsoft Word, didn't you?
