You have to first change the file creator and type to be a QuarkXPress doc
first, then open it. We have run into this same issue and setting the
creator to XPR3 and the type to XDOC, fixed the problem. For some reason,
doing the open command via AppleScript is not the same as going through the
GUI and doing a File -> Open. Do this in a tell app Finder block, update the
folder the file is in, then open it in QXP.
