I ended up going with the following:

tell application "Finder"
	exists application file id "com.skype.skype"
set x to result
end tell

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"
			set cellValue of cell "Result" of current record to x
end tell

Obviously, by the last tell statement, I am pushing the result to FMP9. Works great. Anything NOT EQUAL to "true", I generate a FMP9 message and close the file. Thanks!

Now for the next logical step, if the application DOES EXIST, how can I trap for if it is one of the LAUNCHED applications (Apple-TAB)? I run other Applescripts which rely on the app being LAUNCHED.

Appreciate it.
