Kerry,
I assume that you are asking for a way in a single call to get just
the ones you want. I don't know of a syntax to do that.
I would just do the baFileList with *.* to get all the files, then
run a simple loop building up a new list of files that end in .jpg or
.bmp:
fullList = baFileList(pPath, "*.*")
listOfJpgsAndBmps = []
nFiles = count(fullList)
repeat with i = 1 to nFiles
theFileName = fullList[i]
last4chars = <grab the last four chars of theFileName>
if (last4chars = ".bmp") or (last4chars = ".jpg") then
append(listOfJpgsAndBmps, theFileName
end if
end repeat

Is there a way to get a list of two kinds of files with baFileList()?
I want to get a list of all the .jpg and .bmp files in a folder. It
looks like I can do one or the other.
baFileList(pPath, "*.jpg") gives me the jpegs. baFileList(pPath, "*.jpg,
*.bmp") returns [].
I can build the list by doing baFileList twice. It would be kinda nice
to just do it once, though.
Cordially,
Kerry Thompson
