Marconi,

try something like this;

tell application "System Events"
activate
beep
display dialog "No selection was made." buttons "OK" default button 1 giving up after 4
end tell


The call to System Events puts the dialog in the front.


That helps if I happen to be there. Often I am away and when I return, the dialog is nowhere to be seen, obscured by who knows what window(s).


Is there a way to specify that a dialog float above other windows?
