Thanks Steve and Ronan,

I don't have a problem searching for do or ado files in the finder.

I did associate .do and .ado files with the editor, TextWrangler. Both
of the .do and .ado files report in the finder "Kind: ASP Code File."
If I associate .do and .ado with StataMP or TextMate the Kind does not
change.

The reason this is of interest to me is that I have been using an
extraordinarily useful Mac application called "Leap"
(http://www.ironicsoftware.com/leap/) that "tags" files by "File
Types" (actually by Kind). Both .do and .ado files are lumped together
as "ASP Code File." So I can't separate do and ado by file type. I
have no idea where this designation came from ... perhaps from
TextWrangler,"  but it doesn't go away.

If I find out more I will report back.

Fred
