You might want to check out Buddy API (http://www.buddyapi.com). Its open function will open a file with the file's associated app (win) or creator (mac). I've found Buddy's "open" more reliable in general. You get 2 functions for free, so it won't cost ya nothin'. 'Course, it is an xtra, so you have to take the steps necessary when publishing.
