do shell script "open -a 'Script Editor.app' /Appl*/iT*"
or
tell application "Script Editor"
open ("" & (path to startup disk) & "Applications:iTunes.app:") as alias
end tell
Or just:
tell application "Script Editor" to open (path to application "iTunes")
Or, come to think of it:
tell application "Script Editor" to open alias "My
HD:Applications:iTunes.app:"
Re. the OP's problem: try running the following ('My HD' should be
your drive name, obviously):
file "My HD:"
Gives an error in SE1.9 and SE2. No problems in Smile, however.
