Hi im currently designing an application...
I want to know how to load a file from some other locaiton which can be chosen, but when i load it. it saves the file location onto a Menu.
Is this possible?
Can anyone help me?

Hi, and welcome..
This might help you abit:
Code: Select all
a$ = OpenFileRequester("Title","","*.*",0)
If a$ <> ""
Debug GetPathPart(a$)
Else
Debug "Cancelled"
EndIf
Getting the debug string onto a Menu shouldn't much harder..
Why don't you try it, and see if you can get it to work?!?

Okay works... Thanks!!
what about this...
When I Close it. It saves this information so when i reopen it i can run the location without having to select it.

Can you use a Preference file? These are like .ini files, and are really easy to save into and read.
