Problem with Filerequester

[loulou2522]

Hello,
I am having a problem with the Filerequester instruction. Here is my code

DefaultFile$ = ‘d:\toto\toto.csv’
; ; Default directory and file to be displayed
Filter$ = ‘CSV file(*.csv)|*.csv’
Filter = 0 ; use the first of the three possible filters by default
File11$ = OpenFileRequester(‘Select file to import’, DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

Despite this, I am unable to set Openfileresquester to the directory ‘d:\toto’ and the file ‘toto.csv’.
Can anyone assist?

Changed all the string expressions to double-quotes and it works perfectly.

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = "d:\toto\toto.csv"
; ; Default directory and file to be displayed
Filter$ = "CSV file(*.csv)|*.csv"
Filter = 0 ; use the first of the three possible filters by default
File11$ = OpenFileRequester("Select file To import", DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

Your code with DQOUTES works here:

What is your environment?

This problem occurs when I call input file requester for the second time

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = “d:\toto\toto.csv”
             ;      DefaultFile$ = default file to be displayed
              Filter$ = “CSV file (*.csv)|*.csv”
              Filter = 0    ; use the first of the three possible filters by default              
              File11$ = OpenFileRequester(“Select file to import”, DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

The first time I call the function, it goes to the right directory, but when I call the function with other parameters inside the same executable

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = “d:\toto1l\toto1.csv”
             ;      DefaultFile$ = default file to be displayed
              Filter$ = “CSV file (*.csv)|*.csv”
              Filter  = 0    ; use the first of the three possible filters by default              
              File11$ = OpenFileRequester(“Select file to import”, DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

the function repositions itself on the default file of the first inputfilerequester

It still works as expected.

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = "d:\toto\toto.csv"
Filter$ = "CSV file(*.csv)|*.csv"
Filter = 0
File11$ = OpenFileRequester("Select file to import", DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

DefaultFile$ = "d:\toto1\toto.txt"
Filter$ = "Text file(*.txt)|*.txt"
Filter = 0
File11$ = OpenFileRequester("Select file to import", DefaultFile$, Filter$, Filter)

The only conceivable reason for the requester to fall back to the earlier defaults would be if any of the updated default values are invalid.

For example, if the d:\toto1 folder did not exist, it would simply reopen the d:\toto folder.

It is strange and annoying. It is not PureBasic's fault. It is a feature of the Windows OS.

It is strange and annoying. It is not PureBasic's fault. It is a feature of the Windows OS.

The compiled and IDE versions work perfectly, for both OpenFileRequester() as well as SaveFileRequester(), as tested on Win10 with PB v6.12 x64 and Win11 with PB v6.21 arm64, and also on MacOS Sequoia with PB v6.21 arm64.

i modify my programm replace quote with double quote but that' dont work

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = “d:\toto\toto.csv”

They're not the double quotes used by PureBasic. They're curly quotes. Compare with what's needed:

Code: Select all

DefaultFile$ = "d:\toto\toto.csv"
