Ton,

I wonder whether Finder sets file information right away or keeps 
updating it as the file is copied. Worth checking. If the latter, a 
variation or enhancement of what Thomas suggested above could be to 
keep looking at the file size as reported by the detailed files. If 
three or four (or more) subsequent checks give the same number, your 
program can assume that copying is done. Time delayed multiple checks 
are needed since copying may pause.
