if I use the following compound statement and I don't load the default file, is there any way to retrieve the filename loaded??


If ReadFile(0, OpenFileRequester("Load Data File", "C:\Home Inventory\Data\Inventory.in3", "Inventory Load File | *.in3", 0))

Hi,

Easiest way should be to make something like :

FileName = OpenFileRequester ...
if ReadFile(....

Otherwise you will have some difficulties to now what FileName was !

I know that's the easiest way but the compound statement is more elegant (grin). Oh well, might bite the bullet and reverse engineer some of my code to do it the longer way.

By the way, did you ever get my email? Not that it matters, PB solved my problem but I was just curious.

Yes, I sure did. Just checked my sent mailbox to see if that was right and it was. Oh well.
