Try using the Finder to get the description of your item - here is an
example
tell application "Finder"
get description of selection
end tell
In this example I had selected a CD on the desktop and the returned result
was "CD-ROM disc". So -
tell application "Finder"
>
if description of this_item is "CD-ROM disc" then...
....
end if
end tell
Hope that helps. Someone posted this a few months ago.
