Glad that worked, I actually saved the note below from this same list
last year when they asked a similar question.  It has come in handy!

1. Get a list of images that should be on the tape:
bpimmedia -mediaid <mediaID>  | grep IMAGE | cut -d" " -f4

2. Look up the file list for each image:
bpflist -l -client <clientname> -backupid <clientname_imagenumber> -d
01/01/70 -rl 999 | cut -d" " -f10

bpflist is very picky about it's arguments.  Previous posts on this
list also indicate that the syntax has changed with the revisions.
I just tested this on my setup (Solaris 9, NB 5.1, MP6) and it works for
me.
