Stan,

I have check V4RB/Examples/Common/MacOS_Creator.rb

---------------------------------------------------
  dim f as folderitem
  
  // obtain folder item for file in the same folder.
  f = getFolderItem( "DataBase1.vdb" )
  
  // mDatabase in this example -- property of this window.
  mDataBase = new VDataBase()
  
  // we inform instance of database about signature and [optionally]
  // we must do this BEFORE Create() call.
  mDatabase.Creator = "MYAP"
  mDatabase.SetMacTypes( "Mtp1", "Mtp2", "Mtp3", "Mtp4" )
  
  // We will keep db in the one disk file
  mDataBase.Create( f, 4, 32 * 1024 )
---------------------------------------------------


You should set Creator/Type  BEFORE db.Create() call.
