Hi Marcus,

I wrote this but no tested in every conditions !
It works for mine in MacOS X, but I think that must be the same in Classic (OS 9, 8, ...).



  
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"  
	set theSelection to item 1 of selection  
	set theClass to class of theSelection  
	if theClass is in {EPS, PDF} then -- if the image is selected by direct tools  
		set theSelection to parent of theSelection  
	end if  
	-- try to get the file path of the item:  
	set theFilePathOfImage to file path of item link of page item 1 of theSelection  
end tell 

tell application "Finder"  
	activate  
	select file theFilePathOfImage  
end tell  




HTH
