validating the script on opening it...forever (spinwheel).
Any hints what to do?
it's a stab in the dark, but maybe if you turned off all of your
network interfaces prior to trying to open the script then the network
searching would time out rather than hang.
As for avoiding this, AS: The Definitive Guide has some tips on pp
350-351. Basically, you obfuscate the tell application statement by
putting the app name in variable and using that in the statement. You
then need a 'using terms from ...' statement to get it to compile, but
it doesn't need to see the app running on the remote machine this way.
