Excluding aliases from a file search

Hi all,

The script bits that the list members have helped me on recently has allowed me to complete the first part of my designers "archiving pre-check" script.

It is helping big-time in reducing the time it takes for designers to check over their completed jobs prior to submitting for archiving.

So before I ask my next question I have to say a BIG THANKS!

Now, when the script looks through their images folder with this line:

set ImgFiles to (every file of ImgsFldr)

to flag files that do not match {"EPSF", "TIFF", "EPSP", "JPEG"} it seems to be flagging an alias that some designers have in their images folder (to their layered PSD folder).

Is the script flagging the alias or is it digging deeper into the actual folder of the alias?

I also realised that some designers (on very large jobs) have sub-folders inside their images folder.

Could someone help me with the syntax that sets ImgFiles to ever file of the entire contents of ImgsFldr but ignores any aliases?

Ta muchly,

Coj
