Here is a way that has been suggested before and seems to work well: use "replace" to insert your variables into place holders in the AppleScript before you "do" it. e.g. -- AppleScript stored in a field or property tell application "Finder" set newVar to *myVar* display dialog "Double: " & newVar * 2 end tell -- button that calls it after setting the variable on mouseUp put fld 1 into theScript replace "*myVar*" with 5 in theScript do theScript as AppleScript end mouseUp > > The overall goal here is to use Revolution to provide a window and a > progress bar to a running Applescript.

I don't know how to do this, but there was a complaint yesterday that "lock screen" locks the whole screen and not just the winodw. Perhaps this would hide your app while you open & close it.
