My bash script only opens editor, why doesn't it run?

Question

I created a script to dd sdb to sdc on my older computer with Ubuntu 13. It ran when I clicked on it – asked if I wanted to run in terminal or edit it. On a newer computer, with Ubuntu 14, I created the same script on my desktop and made it executable, but when I click on it, the file simply opens in an editor with no opportunity to execute it. So I copied the 'Simple Bash Example' script from "How do I create a script file for terminal commands?" and made it executable. Same result; click on it and the file simply opens in an editor with no opportunity to execute it. (I have not tried reverting to Ubuntu 13.) What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Sorry if I wasted anyone's time. The answer is in Bash script with execution permissions won't run with dbl click -- which I found in Linked and Related. Thank you for UBUNTU.
