I just started Applescript last week so if this is a dumb question, my apologies. I'm trying to script a non-Applescript-aware app (Mac School). Mac School is a little weird in that it is a shell which opens a module within it.

The script I've made does everything through the finder-- opens a server volume, opens the shell app. The user at this point logs on to the shell and opens the module. The script waits a while, quits the module and trashes the server volume.

The hard part -- when the module quits, the shell automatically restarts with a new logon window. ...Won't quit 'til the window is dismissed. Can't quit with a Finder command. There is a 'quit' button in the window.

Is there any way Applescript can cause the app to quit while this dialog is up?

with thanks,
Bruce
