Hello Christopher,

I tried your script here and could observe the same behavior as you did.

I tried a very simplified version of your script:

	tell application "Finder"
		close every window
		open home
		select items 1 thru 3 of front window
		open folder "Documents" of home
		select items 1 thru 3 of front window
		selection
	end tell

and systematically got an empty list.
Re-launching the Finder nor rebooting had no effect.
Looks like the Finder's selection property isn't correctly updated, and that it's a Finder-only problem.

Now, Simon didn't seem to encounter your (our) problem; so, could be one of those very annoying bug because elusive.

Here, I have a mid-2010 MacBook Air with a very standard Lion (10.7.1) installation (no "Finder enhancers" or other such magic things).

Axel
