FolderItem.MacType Property

Syntax

MacType as String


The 4-character code that identifies the type of file (Macintosh only). For example, "APPL" is the type of all applications.

"TEXT" is the type of most text documents. Assign the 4-character string to this property. If the FolderItem refers to a directory on Mac OS, MacType returns "fold". MacRoman encoding is used.
