Finder windows: opening in same, closing parent


  • Subject: Finder windows: opening in same, closing parent

How can I emulate the Cmd-Opt-Double-Click behavior of the Finder,
which opens a folder and then closes the parent window? I've got the
following

tell application "Finder"
open the selection
end tell

but 'close parent window of the selection' doesn't work?

Also, is there a way to tell the Finder to open a folder in the same
window?

Jim
