display dialog "Getting File Suffix"
set this_item_txt to "" & this_item
if this_item_txt contains "." then
set oldDelims to AppleScript's text item delimiters
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "."
set item_suffix to text item -1 of this_item_txt
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldDelims
end if
display dialog "Suffix is " & item_suffix
will do the trick.
The important thing is that the instruction
set this_item_txt to "" & this_item
will give you a text item which will be accepted by the text item delimiters code.
