Emmanuel hinted at this. How about waiting for AW6 to activate with something like:

tell application "Finder"
repeat until processes contain "AppleWorks"
end repeat
end tell

or:

...
repeat until creator type of processes contain "BOBO"
...

As for the script getting ahead of itself when using Standard Additions
clipboard commands to move text between applications, I did find that a
couple of carefully placed delays helped to keep things in order - but I
am concerned that the delays might need to be longer on slower machines,
or when other applications are also running. And there's no way of
knowing *how much* longer.
