It looks good, but when you say "enter a Transcript command that opens a

launch "c:\program files\textpad 4\textpad.exe"
Ken, ignore my previous post. The transcript command is run through format() so the problem is that format() interprets \ as the escape character for C strings. So any backslashes have to be escaped "c:\\program files..."
launch "c:\\program files\\textpad 4\\textpad.exe"
However, it probably is going to have to be something like this to feed it the filename to open
put "%s" into tTmpFile
put quote & "c:\\program files\\textpad 4\\textpad.exe" & quote into tEditor
get shell( tEditor && tTmpFile )
