Code: Select all

First of all

Code: Select all

StatusBarText(0, 0, GetExtensionPart(FullPathName$)  ,#PB_StatusBar_BorderLess )

should be

Code: Select all

StatusBarText(#StatusBar_0, 0, GetExtensionPart(FullPathName$)  ,#PB_StatusBar_BorderLess )

and secondly where did you declare FullPathName$?
It helps a lot to add EnableExplizit at the top of your code...

Add this line after line 56 (after selecting file to open)

Code: Select all

StatusBarText(#StatusBar_0, 0, FileName)
