Thanks Tom, This does work. So do I gather however, that you can't pass or intermix Rev parameters directly with Applescript parameters? In other words, if I have a variable in Rev called tColor which contains "Red", I can't ever use that directly in an Applescript statement? Variables always have to be plugged in to a hard-coded AS statement using the replace command or something similar?
