I guess I answered that one myself. Don't put the word activate after "tell
application "Finder" and it won't bring the finder to the front, at least in
my applescript. If you can launch an applescript from a control panel, such
as ido script scheduler, then the finder need not come to the front to
activate the script. This was probably elementary to you veteran
applescripters.
