Very interesting Stephen! I've never used these commands before. They might just do the trick for me.

Thanks,

Thanks Marty. It's just slightly more complicated than that, though. In my case I've got a zip file which a script in my standalone has downloaded. I'd like to decompress it automatically from the same script but I don't know where "Archive Utility" is or what it's named on the end users machine. On my machine it's System/Library/Core Services/Archive Utility.app but on a friend's machine I noticed it's named "BOMArchive Utility" instead of
"Archive Utility".  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

You can open a specific document with a specific application like this:

launch "/MyDocumentsFolder/TheDocument.doc" with "/Applications/ MyApp.app"

using the path of each. and assuming the the application is capable of
opening it.

On kind of a related note, anybody know how to set a file to open with a certain application? This is manually done with the Get Info window on the
Mac but I need to do this from within a script.

Thanks,
