Hello,  
I’m creating a flash projector for cd-rom, that will have an auto-launch for PC, but not for MAC.  
I’ve created some commands to open a pdf and open an email client. The commands work fine on a PC, but not on MAC.

Here is my actionscript for opening the pdf:

on (release) {  
fscommand(“fullscreen”, “false”)  
fscommand (“exec”, “launchPdf.app”);  
getURL(“apps/hootieForm.pdf”, “\_blank”)  
}

The launchPdf.app is an applescript I created, here is the script:

tell application “Finder”  
select file “fscommand:hootieForm.pdf” of disk “Hootie Brown”  
open selection  
end tell

Need help to get the pdf to open on a MAC, and to open the email client on a MAC.

Thanks for your help.
