Buddy API's baShortFileName will do this.

BudyAPIs WindowList and WaitForWindow commands might help.

You could call baWindowList after you fire up the print dialog and search
for a valid window handle, then use the handle to call baWaitForWindow. Just
an idea, completely untested ;)

This is what i use to get rid of unwanted hilites. I've only encountered
this problem when switching between applications, so your mileage may vary
:)

on activateApplication
the stagecolor = the stagecolor
end
