I rolled my mouse over to the file that I have to select and recorded
its hierarchy with UIElement Inspector. The UIElement inspector showed
the following at this point of time

<AXApplication:"QuarkXPress">
<AXWindow:"Open">
<AXUnknown>
<AXBrowser>
<AXScrollArea>
<AXList>
<AXTextField>

The AXTextField is actually the filename of the file that I have to
select.

How do I translate this into applescript code. I enclosed these n tell
blocks but it did not work. I fot an error.

Please guide me on how to do this.

Regards,
Nandini
