Hi Steve,
Turns out either you have given the Apple Event a project as an
argument (in which case the targetprojectname is ignored because you
already gave one) or you have no project name, in which case the
frontmost project is used (and targetprojectname is ignored again
because a project was already chosen).
You can file a bug against this if you like. Arguably, the no project
case should respect the importoptions and only use the frontmost
project if createnewproject is false and targetprojectname is not set.

I'm working on a plugin that imports a sequence by sending XML to
FCP. It also queries FCP for the list of open projects so it knows
the project choices.
I launched FCP with no projects, then created two new projects and
saved them as "Test Project #1" and "Stevec project", respectively.
I find that no matter which project I specify, or if I set
createnewproject=TRUE to create a new project, the sequence always
ends up being added to "Stevec project".
The interesting part of the XML is appended. Any ideas what I might
be doing wrong?
