Perhaps you should use the 'type identifier' in System Events.
A disk image file has type identifier = public.disk-image,
while an image file has type identifier = public.image
Yes, I think that would be a more direct and efficient approach.
set fold to (choose folder)
set name_key to "123-456-78"
set prefix to (words of name_key as text) -- "12345678"
tell application "System Events"
every file of fold whose name begins with prefix and kind
contains "image"
end tell
A shy retiring list member has sent me a note to say the above will
also snag items whose kind is "Disk image". So if that could be the
case, a change will be necessary:
every file of fold whose name begins with prefix and kind contains
"image" and kind does not contain "Disk"
