I thought I will take this one step further, use the multiple selections
Set FileToOpen to choose file with prompt "Choose File:" default location alias dlocation multiple selections allowed boolean
I tried this in many way separating each option with comma, colon, semicolon.... generates error message. Above does not generate an error but does not allow multiple selections. I tried selecting using different keys. What am I missing?

It's in the dictionary:
choose file v : Choose a file on a disk or server
choose file
[with prompt string] : the prompt to be displayed in the dialog box
[of type list of string] : a list of file types or type identifiers.
Only files of the specified types will be selectable.
[default location alias] : the default file location
[invisibles boolean] : Show invisible files and folders? (default is
true)
[multiple selections allowed boolean] : Allow multiple items to be
selected? (default is false)
[showing package contents boolean] : Show the contents of packages?
(Packages will be treated as folders. Default is false.)
→ alias : the chosen file
