There's a possible refinement here, Yvan.

Depending on the source of the text represented by "theFiles", the end-of-line signal might also consist of both characters: ASCII character 13 & ASCII character 10. (This would be typical in MS-DOS/ Windows systems - as well as in a number of text-based Internet protocols, such as SMTP, NNTP and POP3.)

If the end-of-line signal isn't known (or even if it is) AppleScript's "paragraph" text elements should do the trick:

-------------
set FileNames to paragraphs of theFiles
--> {"BE_00097_M3200W", "BE_00158_M1370"}

You are perfectly right

Is it true that sometimes we may have
ASCII character 13 & ASCII character 10
or
ASCII character 10 & ASCII character 13 ?
