thanks for your reply. I might investigate the AppleScript route.
I'd rather send my app the very same event it receives upon a click
on the Dock rather than recreating the desired behavior myself.

It would probably be easier just to use a small NSAppleScript and
execute that. try something like:
activate application "myApp"
Where myApp is the name of your application. However | am slightly
confused as to what else you want. Are you basically trying to
simulate the act of the user clicking on the dock icon for your
app? If so, and you want to open a new doc, simply do something
like this after running the script:
openUntitledDocAndDisplay is only available in 10.4, but there is a
10.3 and earlier equivalent.

Hi!
I want my application to send itself an AppleEvent.
Specifically I have a document based application that I want to
send a reopen event so it becomes active and creates a new
document as needed.
I came across some Carbon functions and one hardly documented
Cocoa method. Nothing I can make much sense of. Yet I figure
sending an AppleEvent ought to be something easy.
TIA for your help
