I read the Techincal Note.

But, I never realised that do shell script is an asynchronous process.

But that's my point -- it's supposed to be (and normally is) synchronous. If you're seeing it be asynchronous, then something unusual is going on. A few cursory tests show it working normally (I can, for instance, say 'do shell script "rexx newstr.rexx"' and get the right answer), but since I don't know Rexx at all, it's hard for me to say for sure.
