(Your app could open an app with a type of XXXX, *or* with no type and one of your defined extensions, but not an app with the right extension and a type of TEXT.)

May I guess that is a theoretical explanation which you didn't prove in code? A case of how it should be?

My experience is this, again, the opposite:

If you want to display only files with a specific extension, which may have a MacType or may not, in an OpenDialog, you have possibilities: First, use the MBS plugin. Second, create a filetype with the correct extension but with a dummy MacType.

In this case only files with the extension like for example .xml or. html are displayed, even if they have a MacType like TEXT.

There is only risk: that your dummy value is used as MacType by someone, like XXXX (that is in the Apple reserved space) could be used by Apple for the next great thing.
