cool, I'll isolate it to make sure.

My first hit to the list was to find if anyone had seen it or if there was a 
new feature in 2006 that I'd missed configuring.

I know what you are referring to here but this Finder behavior is (for me) both 
predictable and reliable. Basically the path that typically gets followed when 
double-clicking a document is:

1) find the newest running application that is set to open this file type
2) if no running application then find the newest application on disk, launch 
it, and hand it the document

#1 works fine when I have the app running in debug or stand-alone as the app 
move to the foreground (but the 2006 app then does not get / use the open 
document event)

#2 works also - the Finder launches the newest version of my app that will 
correctly get the open event and open the document - that being a 2005r4 
version.

so the Finder seems to be following a predictable path. Now I just need to 
determine if I can isolate the problem and which version of RB in appeared 
in.....
