Hi Chris,
If all you're concerned with is differentiating between two similar files,
might I suggest using the file 'Comments'.
Either just get info of the file, then add comments.
OR
tell application "Finder"
set the comment of file "HD:fold:fold:app" to "This is my comment."
end
Versions are stored in InfoPlist files. You can't set a version to a script
saved as an application with AppleScript.
Best Regards,
jp
