> Since I have not been receiving messages either, I've missed the discussion on the launching..so I apologize if this is a duplicate of something already said. Its been my experience that the launch command is problematic and have found that using shell() and applescript are more reliable, especially when you open multiple documents in succession. It also takes away the problem of locating the application - you can let the OS deal with that.
