Selecting your application using a file id

Hi,

l did a little script that worked out the application name using the file id

eg:
tell application "Finder"
   try
        set appname to the name of application file id "InDn"
       display dialog "AppName: " & appname as string
   end try
end tell


This worked great until l got two versions of the same application installed at it just defaults to the latest version.
So l was wondering if you can also ref the file type field also?


As with InDesign this is different CS is "IDd3" and in CS2 "IDd4" on a document.

Regards, Gary.
