Hello,

get id of application "TextEdit"
-->"com.apple.TextEdit"

get id of application "applescriptApplication.app"
-->"aplt"

What is it that causes an applescript application to create a plist  
and, I assume, thusly be locatable with the...

tell application id "com.apple.TextEdit"
     make new document
end tell

...construct?

thanks,
Paul
