>>Further to this, try looking at this site for definitions of error numbers:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleScript/Conceptual/AppleScriptL
angGuide/AppleScript.10a.html

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=9804

Both good resources, thanks.

Here's how to generate a -609 yourself.
----------
try
    tell application "Finder"
        quit
        activate
    end tell
on error errtext number errNumber
    display dialog errtext & return & errNumber
end try
tell application "Finder" to activate
----------

And here's how not to generate a -609 error

----------
try
    tell application "Finder"
        quit
        delay 1
        activate
    end tell
on error errtext number errNumber
    display dialog errtext & return & errNumber
end try
tell application "Finder" to activate
----------

HTH,

ES
