Passing argument to applescript app: possible?

[captsnappy]

My head hurts from Googling for an answer to my problem.

I wrote an app in AppleScript to open a network folder. It works when the folder name is hard coded. Here is the AppleScript

set mylocation to "smb://server.domain.com/network/afolder"
tell application "Finder"
[indent]open location mylocation[/indent]
[indent]activate[/indent]
end tell

I'm using the LotusScript Shell() command to call the app from a IBM Notes application. It works. Here is that LotusScript statement:

comstr = "open -a OpenMyFolder.app"
taskid% = Shell(comstr)

This works.

What I want to do is to pass the folder path as an argument to the app. As in:

comstr = "open -a OpenMyFolder.app smb://server.domain.com/network/afolder"
taskid% = Shell(comstr)

So far I have not found a way to pass an argument to an app.
(So simple on the Windows side using cscript.....)

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
