I have been able to successfully save this as an app, but am having trouble
now when changing to select a file. When I try to change the choose folder
to choose file, I get the following error.

[quote]
Finder got an error: Can't get file {alias "Macintosh
HD:Users:sprale:Desktop:test eps files:03EM01301CZ06015A4.eps"} whose
{"eps", "ai", "ART1", "ART2", "ART3", "ART4"} contains name extension or
kind contains "Postscript" or kind contains "EPS" or kind contains
"Illustrator" or kind contains "ART5".
