Well I don't think that this the problem. It should be related with how the
target application is saved or with file type that is missing in sample
scripts and probably should be "osas"?

Now questions are:
a) under what circumstances Script Editor 2.0 saves files with file type
(osas) and creator (Toys) information plus resource fork?

b) I can't find the "Requires Classic" check box option while saving as
application. Is this feature gone away even if the Help system mention it?

c) what is the difference in saving as "Script" versus "Script Bundle" or
"Application" versus "Application Bundle"
