Okay!
There's GOTTA be a simple answer! Below is a script and three applets. I've boiled 'em down
to where they can't get much simpler.
When I run the script without the "Try" statements, A, B, & C give an Apple Event Time Out.
With the 'Try's, A, B, & C still take exactly a full minute each to release, but at least
they run.
2 different G4s, -- OS 9.0.4 and 9.1 -- Applescript 1.4.3 is what they'll need to run under.
--------------------------------
--Save as compiled script: "Run ABC.script"
tell application "Finder"
try
run application "A app"
end try
try
run application "B app"
end try
try
run application "C app"
end try
end tell
--------------------------------
--save as applet: "A app"
tell application "Finder"
say "This is ay"
beep
end tell
--------------------------------
--save as applet: "B app"
tell application "Finder"
say "This is B"
beep
end tell
--------------------------------
--save as applet: "C app"
tell application "Finder"
say "This is C"
beep
end tell
--------------------------------
Thanks everyone . . . I enjoy this forum tremendously.
