Internet Explorer" error. What's odd is that IE is actually running, and it
still doesn't know where to find it. Is there a way I can fix this in one
script without breaking things for OS 9?

8.6 doesn't have a problem locating processes here, it complains 'expected
on but found end' though so 'on error'.
If you want a robust solution search Smile's help for 'portability'
