I understood exactly what Chris said about the difficulty of using a
relative path in a script, but I need some help with the Quicktime Player.
There are two of them when you install OS 10. There appears to be one in
OS 9 and one that sits in OS 10. If you don't hardcode in the QT Player in
OS 10 more often than not it will launch OS 9 in classic mode and startup
the OS 9 QT Player. I want my OS 10 script to always launch the OS 10 QT
player app - not the OS 9 QT player app. My script will run on lots of
different macs - and I have no control over how people name their macs.
I'm hopeful, however, that the QT Player will always sit in the
Applications folder of OS 10.

Thanks in advance,
Jack Rarick
