try using "Smile", it opens the script without opening the apps (in this
case, at least).

Not sure why you are getting a problem there, I am running ScriptMasterXT
and Quark opens fine.

When I record opening Quark it reads as follows.

tell application "Adobe. Photoshop. 5.0.2"
activate
end tell

tell application "QuarkXPress 4.1"
activate
(*"ScriptMaster XT active"*)
end tell


I removed the (*"ScriptMaster XT active"*) and it still opened fine so I
don't think that is the problem. You may want to try it though.
