Thierry,

As I wrote in my previous e-mail, you should use WITH type and not OF type.

answer file "" with type "ICS|*ics|ICS "

You can add additional filters:

answer file "" with type "ICS|*ics|ICS " or type "All Files|*|*"

I believe that the ICS type defined as "ICS|*ics|ICS " should work fine, because the file extension is right, but if that doesn't work, you can choose All Files from the option menu in the file dialog.

Thanks Mark !

Here is about the confusion:

From the Dictionary Doc: -----------------------------

example topic:
  ...
  answer file (field "Prompt") of type "RSTK"
  answer file empty with filter "JPEGs,*.jpg"

a bit further, we can read:

The way file types are specified depends on the platform:
Filtering for Mac OS:  You can use either with filter or of type......
-------------------------------------------------

But, your examples do not help me in this case :-(

In fact, the files *.ics I'm looking for in a file open dialog, can come from different apps and from different systems..... ( just to make it easy ) and, these .ics files are by now, just plain text files coming from a Linux system. Looking the file Creator and Type with FileInfo, I only have "????" and "????"

So, does this means I have the choice to *not* do any filtering ?
