Hi Shari,

Run this in the AppleScript editor.

tell application "System Events"
        tell application processes
                repeat 2 times
                        key code 28 using {command down, option down, control 
down}
                end repeat
        end tell
end tell

You could also store the script in a custom property and use the do as 
AppleScript command to run it.

Enjoy :-)
