The directory that comes up would either be the preset workspaces directory,
or the directory of the last file opened/saved.
In MapBasic Help File - Look up:
FileOpenDlg()
PathToFileName$()
PathToDirectory$()
FileSaveAsDlg ()
Save Workspace As
sample code suggestion:
Global filename, path as String
SubButton1
filespec = FileOpenDlg( path , filename , ".WOR" , prompt )
filename = PathToFileName$( filespec )
path = PathToDirectory$( filespec )
SubButton3
filespec = FileSaveAsDlg ( path , filename, ".WOR", prompt )
Save Workspace As filespec
SubAlternateButton3
Save Workspace As path+filename
