I have directory "Test" which consists of MyScript.scpt (Apple script file created from script editor) and an executable MyTest.exe (compiled C program). MyTest.exe takes two parameters as arguments. (Example to run it "./MyTest name age") MyScript.scpt must show a dialog to accept two parameters and when user presses OK button, it must call my MyTest executable with necessary data from script.
I think I gave clear description now. please revert back if not clear. SVV Satyanarayana Bangalore, India

To call command line tools, use the 'do shell script' command. Details are in the Standard Additions dictionary.
It's not clear from your post whether or not you are in an AppleScript Studio project and whether or not you are targeting a tool or a scriptable application. To target a scriptable application use the form:
tell application "System Events" activate set flist to path of every file of desktop folder whose visible is true choose from list flist end tell Philip Aker
