Launching from flash opens Classic

This is my first time using Applescript. I’m trying to launch a pdf file from a Flash projector file. I have the flash file scripted ok, but when it gets to the Applescript, it tries to launch Classic. The script that I have is:

tell application “Finder”
activate
select file “file_name.pdf” of folder “fscommand” of disk “ClientsCD”
open selection
end tell

Thanks.

Your code simply acts as a double-click in the Finder, so… Classic is launched in order to run your script? Or is after your script is running when Classic is launched? (in order to open the PDF using a classic app)
Try this: double-click your applescript and let us know if Classic is launched before running it, or before opening the PDF file.
