I wish to get the list of PDF and pages documents available in a folder.
If I filter on a single extension, it behave flawlessly.
If I try to filter upon a list of extensions it fails.
What am I doing wrongly ?

Hey Yvan,

I think System Events is just limited in that respect. It works fine in the Finder on 10.6.7 English.

set f to alias "Thor:Users:chris:Downloads:"

set e to {"mp4", "webarchive"}

tell application "Finder"

try

set fileList to (files of f whose name extension is in e) as alias list

on error errMsg number errNum

set sep to "=============================="

set e to sep & return & "Error: " & errMsg & return & sep & return ¬

& "Error Number: " & errNum & return & sep

# beep

# display dialog e

end try

end tell

Best Regards,

Chris
