Hi Dan,

Try this:

tell application "Finder" to activate
tell application "System Events"
	tell process "Finder"
		set dialogResult to (display dialog "Please select your option!" & "
Will timeout in 10 seconds!" buttons {"Restart", "Shutdown", "Cancel"}
default button 2 with icon 0 giving up after 10)
		if gave up of dialogResult then
			my shutdownscript("ShutdownScript")
		else
			set the user_choice to the button returned of dialogResult
			if the user_choice is "Restart" then
				my restartscript("RestartScript")
				return false
			else if the user_choice is "Shutdown" then
				my shutdownscript("ShutdownScript")
				return false
			else if the user_choice is "Cancel" then
				return false
			end if
		end if
	end tell
end tell

Stan C.
