I suspect you will need an actual applescript to manage all of it. Are you able to use automator to actually run this program and do all the steps needed except for the name, or are you using something else to interact with the program? there are a couple of AppleScript mailing lists,or you might start here: <http://www.google.com/search?q=applescript+gui+scripting> -- "But you read a lot of books, I'm thinking.
