In the new page <http://www.apple.com/applescript/script_editor/110.html>
there's the script below, with instructions to go to the Services menu,
select the Script Editor and Run as AppleScript.

If I do it, it starts System 9. I went to check, and MacOS X Help Viewer
_is_ named Help Viewer. What is happening?

TIA for any clarification,

Mike

tell application "Help Viewer"

display dialog "Hello!"

Runs fine OMM. But if you have this kind of problem, try ending the name of the app with an ".app", i.e.

tell application "Help Viewer.app"
activate
display dialog "Hello!"
end tell
