Gee, reading error dialogs... thinking... ugh.

No really, thanks! You've pointed me to some usefull resources in which I found elements that I
use in my own code now, I was just really (de)buggin out and needed some fresh insights. I understood
my error message but couldn't see a way around, so studying the scripts and methods on DOUG I found
one method that works for my special case. (opening using Buddy API and setting 'Stay-on-top' properties for stage and PP).
But most important, I found out that if the PowerPoint (2000) application is not updated (with servicepack's etc.) it generates
script error when opened from director, and updated versions don't !? In practice I have to figure out if this works
for different versions (PP 97, 2000, 2003 ???), because I can only test on PP 2000 here.
