Greetings David,

Yes, this is what I have found as well, constructs that contain "contain" don't seem to work with keychain key properties. I also have resorted to repeating through the list.

I have seen a claim elsewhere that exact comparisons such as {keys of current keychain whose name is "Test"} works, but I have not had reason to test it.

Now I have the problem, that I can get a listing like:

get every key of keychain "login.keychain"
{generic key 1 of keychain "login.keychain", generic key 2 of
keychain "login.keychain", generic key 3 of keychain "login.keychain",
generic key 4 of keychain "login.keychain", generic key 5 of keychain
"login.keychain", generic key 6 of keychain "login.keychain", .....}

but I cannot extract data any further such as name and account, but I
may be missing something easy here...

... this is the problem I was describing. If you first get a reference to a key you can then get the name of it (or the password, if applicable).

But, since you don't seem to be able to select easily (e.g. where name contains "Yahoo" ... fails) the best method I have found is to scan the list checking the names as I go.

Inefficient, but it works.
