- In the application I'm writing, I want the user to be able to select a document
- from a standard file dialog, and then have my application open that document
- in the application program that created it. Right now I'm trying to send an
- OpenSelection apple event to the finder (for other reasons this application
- must run under system 7) and have the finder send an 'odoc' to the proper
- application. Anyway, I've been unable to get this code to work so, if anyone
- could mail me (no FTP capibility :-( or give me pointers to some code that
- performs this function I would greatly appreciate it. (or if there is a
- simpler means of accomplishing the same thing - I already tried the PPCLaunch
- function and it didn't work). As always, thanks in advance.----------------------------------------------------------------------------
