Cocoa Doc App and AppleScript Studio Support

This should be simple but...

In my Cocoa Doc-based app, I added a new menu item that would use a
simple script to open a URL in the user's default browser but have had
no success. To simplify things, I even tried this from a new Cocoa Doc
App project.

I followed the instructions described in "Add AppleScript Studio
Support to Your Cocoa Application":

in Xcode:
- create new Cocoa Doc-based Application project
- added the AppleScriptKit framework to the project
- added an AppleScript Build Phase to the target
- moved my script file (myscripts.applescript) into the new build phase
- added NSAppleScriptEnabled with a value of "YES" to Info.plist

in IB:
- added a new menu item under the Help menu in MainMenu.nib
- in the AppleScript Info View for this new menu item I selected my
script file
- selected the "choose menu item" Event Handler
- edited the script:

on choose menu item theObject
log theObject
open location "http://www.apple.com";
end choose menu item


Result:
- when I select this menu item nothing happens. No logging and no
opened web page.

Control:
If I create an AppleScript Doc-based Application project and repeat the
same IB process then the menu item works as expected.

Is there something that I am missing in the Cocoa app?

Thanks for your help,

Sean
