The same error will occur in any application, not just the Finder.
This will run commented but not uncommented with any app name:
--tell application "Preview"
set _date to "22-Feb-2007"
date (_date as string)
--end tell
Uncommented, the event 'core getd' will be sent
The error will also occur if you run this without compiling first:
set _date to "22-Feb-2007"
Çevent coregetdÈ date (_date)
