Update: I've adjusted my code to the following:

var openPilFile = File(pilFile);
var pilFileCreated = openPilFile.created;
var pilFileLength = openPilFile.length;
var pilFileContents = openPilFile.open("r");
var openPilFileContents = pilFileContents.read;
	var alertText = "Your .pil file has been opened.";
	alertText = alertText+"\n Length: "+pilFileLength;
	alertText = alertText+"\n Created: "+pilFileCreated;
	alertText = alertText+"\n Open: "+pilFileContents;
	alertText = alertText+"\n Contents: "+openPilFileContents;
	alert(alertText);

This returns:
Script Alert
Your .pil file has been opened
Length: 1343
Created: Wed Jun 28 2006 12:54:08 GMT-0700
Open: true
Contents: undefined
[OK]

Notice that "Contents: undefined" still doesn't work.

Any takers?
