With a little editing of the applescript, this would do the trick: do "tell application " & quote & "Finder" & quote & " to set jones to the processes as text" & cr & "return jones" as applescript put the result It returns the names of the applications, just not separated. A tweak or two to the applescript would turn the list into a return delimited string. gc _______________________________________________ improve-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/improve-revolution
