Wonderful, thanks. Saved it directly this time and it works fine. Much appreciated. (Could have used this two hours ago but there's more to be done so I'm on my way.)

o.k I will tell you what I did exactly:

1. copied the script to my Windows machine desktop (didn't install it just activated it)

2. in AE I selected file->script->run script file and opened the script

3. I got a script window and selected 2 comps to modify 

had same like you an NTSC comp so I selected 480p setting like you needed and entered 1.0 aspect ratio

4. thats it

Ok, need instruction here, Roei.

I copied the script, pasted it into TextEdit (on a Mac here), saved it to CS 6 scripts folder with a JSX extension. Opened AE, selected a comp, and select the script. At which point I get an error message: "Unable to execute script at line 1: syntax error." What . . . am I doing wrong, if you don't mind my asking?

I found something.

try this http://www.crgreen.com/aescripts/

there is a script called Selected_Comps_Changer.jsx

I tried it and it seems to work. let me know.

how about file->scripts->Scale Composition? 

and after that you could set each comp to square pixels.

It also shows up as "rd: Composition Setter"  Does that help?
