Ops, sorry I made the mistake writing my code in Mail, I wanted to
write :
tell app "Finder"
set creator type of file "the file path" to "something"
end tell
This really doesn't work for a package file like .rtfd text files but
this code work for standard files.
So is this normal ?
Thanks Thomas

Yes. You seem to have asked for the creator type of "a string" to be
set.
The Finder will only change creator types of files, not strings. (It's
one
of the few coercions the Finder doesn't do.) Have you tried:
tell app "Finder"
set creator type of file "filePath here" to "something"
end tell
Also "something" should be a real creator type, of course.
