Hey Steve,

In general that syntax shouldn't outta work.

I'd have to see a working example to be able to comment.

Something like this will generally work:

tell application "Finder"
   properties of items of front window
end tell

But once you've created a list you generally have to iterate through it.

You might take a look at the list-object in the Applescript Language Guide.

There are some filter-forms that work such as:

set theList to {"one", 1, "two", 2, {"a", "list"}, {a:"record"}}
integers of theList

Best Regards,
Chris
