Hej,

Is it indeed the case that the allowed fileTypes argument is different in the two methods, even though runModalForTypes: seems to just be a wrapper for runModalForDirectory:? Indeed it seems that only file extension strings are valid as arguments, I tried [panel runModalForTypes: [NSArray arrayWithObjects: [NSNumber numberWithUnsignedLong: 'MooV'], nil]] and got the message

The documentation indicates that you should encode HFS types like this:

NSArray *fileTypes = [NSArray arrayWithObjects: @"txt", @"text",
NSFileTypeForHFSTypeCode( ‘TEXT’ ), nil];

<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ AppFileMgmt/Tasks/UsingAnOpenPanel.html>

Would that work in your case? Have you tried it?

Ah, that, and http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/ Conceptual/LowLevelFileMgmt/Concepts/HFSFileTypes.html did the trick. Thank you!
