AppleScript Support in Cocoa/Java

Hi,

I am trying to implement AppleScript support in my Cocoa app, after many, many hours of effort, I got my custom commands to work, woohoo! However, I can only get simple, no argument commands to work, any with an argument I get this error

NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError

I have copied and pasted my scriptsuite and terminology files below, Disconnect, and DoSQL work, openconnection gives me the error.

I am quite experienced with AppleScript, so I don't think my script is the problem

I don't see why simple arguments could cause me such a problem, I'm sure it must be something simple, any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

Moray

tell app "Lynx"
tell front document
do SQL -- works
disconnect -- works
open connection "whatever" -- gives error
end tell
end tell

This is my scripSuite
