Keystroke question

Hi,

The line;
tell application “System Events” to keystroke “f” using {option down}

gets me the Application ‘Searching “This Mac”’ rather than typing a Option f.

What I’m trying to do is add an Option F to the name of a folder in a Finder window whose name is selected with the entry point set to the end of the name

TIA.
