This script, saved as a droplet, should do the trick in OS 9:
on open thisFolder -- could be multiple folders
tell application "Finder"
set folderItems to every item of thisFolder
repeat with i from 1 to count folderItems
my fixUp(item i of folderItems)
end repeat
end tell
end open
on fixUp(thisItem) -- delete comments
tell application "Finder"
set theseItems to every item of thisItem
repeat with j from 1 to count theseItems
set thisItem to item j of theseItems
if kind of thisItem is not "folder" and creator type of thisItem
is "8BIM" then -- watch line wraps in this line!
-- delete its comment
set comment of information window of thisItem to ""
else
my fixUp(thisItem) -- recursively dig into the folder(s)
end if
end repeat
end tell
end fixUp
Hope that helps,
Bill
