Here's what eventually worked:

This worked?! I'm surprized by that. The MacType property does not take a list of types; it takes a single four-character code. Any characters beyond the first four are just ignored. The weird thing is, that the correct MacType for an application is APPL, not appl, if I recall correctly.

Oh, wait, I see why:

  Dim f as FolderItem = GetOpenFolderItem(AppTypes.MacType)

Here, you're not passing in a FileType at all -- you're passing in the "appl;APPL" string that you (incorrectly) stored in the AppTypes.MacType property!

I'm going to bow out at this point; I see there are a lot of replies I haven't read yet, so hopefully it's all been sorted out by now...

Best,

P.S. PLEASE trim your replies! Leaving in four copies of the list footer does no good to anywone.
