I really used the titles to instruct what to load and now I am left guessing (when I have a series of files to load).

I'm wondering how to give the information that should be in the OpenFileRequester?

Try one of these versions:

- v1: OpenFileRequester_()
- v2: OpenFileRequester_()
- FileRequester()

All 3 versions support a (multi-line) message that is displayed under the titlebar, above the file list.
The last version ( FileRequester() ) is probably the best (OS compatibility etc.)

Thanks Danilo! I would not have found those links.

I've looked at the last two and they work but only the folders are selectable and not the files.

ok, I see my problem. I need to put the pattern in the call. I guess if I had read the entire thread the problem was addressed.

I see that the pattern is in the form of "txt|jpg|pb|pbi" (it's nice that the pattern works )
