Hey Walter, Oops. I left in the 'as alias' coercion from the Mavericks version. Here's the correct version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- on makeAliasList(_list) tell application "Finder" repeat with i in _list set contents of i to (i as alias) end repeat return _list end tell end makeAliasList ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tell application "Finder" set _target to target of front window as alias set fileList to (files of _target whose name extension is "dmg") end tell makeAliasList(fileList) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's a trifle faster with the conversion code directly in the script rather than in a handler. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- tell application "Finder" set _target to target of front window as alias set fileList to (files of _target whose name extension is "dmg") repeat with i in fileList set contents of i to (i as alias) end repeat return fileList end tell ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Best Regards, Chris
