Newbie Dictionary Question

Hello,
I am trying to learn how to use the Dictionaries better, starting with the Finder.

The following script is giving me errors in two places, which I have commented out (the width of the list view and the column sort order)
can anyone tell me how these lines are supposed to be written?
thanks
babs

tell application "Finder"
	activate
	tell list view options of the front Finder window
		set text size to 11
		set shows icon preview to true
		set uses relative dates to false
		--set width to 1100
		--set the sort column to the sort direction to normal
		
	end tell
end tell

Hi,

width and sort direction are properties of column, not of list view options.

This affects the current sort column

tell application "Finder"
	activate
	tell list view options of the front Finder window
		set text size to 11
		set shows icon preview to true
		set uses relative dates to false
		tell sort column
			set width to 1100
			set sort direction to normal
		end tell
	end tell
end tell

thanks Stefen!
