Why?
Look at this I.e. (it's easy)
tell app "Quark"
tell document 1
tell paragraph i of selection
set the_word to word 1
tell app "Akua Sweets"
set new_word to (transcribe the_word as upper cased)
tell app "Finder"
set the_store to alias "HD:myfile"
tell app "Jon's Commands"
if fileIsBusy the_store = false then
tell app "Finder"
write new_word to the_store
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
