Thanks Doug, for the information,

I used it to write a tiny droplet, and just dragged all my affected files over. It's not anything wonderful, but it served my purpose. :o)

Thanks again,
Brandon

In case anyone is interested it is here:

on open filelist
display dialog "This will make all files visible (must make all files that are invisible visible first by using a show/hide method) and remove them from bundles." buttons {"Cancel", "OK"} default button 2
repeat with i in filelist
do shell script "/Developer/Tools/SetFile -a vb " & quoted form of POSIX path of i
end repeat
end open
