set fyl to fyl as text
if the last character of fyl is ":" then
  --it's a folder do your folder stuff
 -- *
  set canOpen to false
else
  -- it's a file do your file stuff
 set canOpen to true

--*It could also be an application bundle, but if so you wouldn't want to
open that in Multi-Add either, but if you did, you could ask "Finder" for
the kind of fyl, which would return application.

I think your version would also accept a bundle as a folder.  It may be
better to just use "kind" for everything.
