I have a script that does stuff in Acrobat.  I am trying to call
Acrobat 6 Professional and Acrobat 5.0 on the same machine.

The Acrobat 5.0 application tell statement seems to compile
and save ok. However, when I close the script and run it, it
changes to Acrobat 6 Professional. I can see the change
when I re-open the script.

Is there any way to have separate

tell application "Acrobat 6.0 Professional"

and

        tell application "Acrobat 5.0"

retain their correct object in the same script?

Try using the full path to each app, Ramona:

tell application "Macintosh HD:Applications:Acrobat 6.0 Professional"... (or whatever it is)

tell application "Macintosh HD:Applications:Acrobat 5.0"... (or whatever it is)
