Follow-up: files in subfolders (was Re: file type question)

Hi John,

I was trying out your suggestion that was posted on the AppleScript
digest, and got it to work for a similar problem I was having. I do
have one follow-up question if I may ask you ...

My script below, asks the user for a folder to search, then searches
for all of the files ending in the suffix ".tex".
Per your code, it returns the list, but in the following verbage:
"{document file "Hill_aareuntion.tex" of folder "Hill" of folder
"Report Project" of folder "All Reports" of startup disk, document file
...."

How can I get it to return the list of the files, searching through
sub-folders, returning the path to the file, such as: HD:All
Reports:Report Project:Hill:Hill_aareuntion.tex ?

Any help will be most welcome,

Thank you,

Terry Hill

'Tis simple: get every file IN ENTIRE CONTENTS OF folder "HD1:Misc:"
whose file type = "TEXT"
