Hi everyone,

I just have a quick question about the *Menu command with Folder
action. I have a folder on my C: drive called "My Web Sites". Inside
this folder is a number of sub-folders, one for each web site. Inside
each site sub-folder is a number of sub-folders (e.g. www.test.com)
and a few files (index.html, backblue.gif etc). Now, what I want to do
is this: have a PowerPro button setup so that when I click on it, it
shows in a dropdown menu each website sub-folder plus the index.html
file only. Using the following:
*Menu
Folder
C:\My Web Sites
Maxtext 64 depth 1 .html -.whtt (using depth 1 because I only want the
files in the root of each website sub-folder, not interested in
anything further down than this)
I have been able to get it do mostly this.

However, when I highlight each website sub-folder in the dropdown, the
sub-folders of these are displayed as well as the index.html file.
Example:
-Click on button
-Dropdown displays
-In dropdown is:
Test Site 1
Test Site 2
Test Site 3
-When I highlight Test Site 1, it expands to:
images (folder)
www.test.com (folder)
index.html

Now, I only want to display index.html and not the folders (in other
words, when I highlight Test Site 1, I will only see index.html, and
nothing else and the same for Test Site 2 and Test Site 3). I've tried
entering a wildcard in the 'exclude these folders' field in the
PowerPro dialog, but it didn't work, so I don't think it accepts
wildcards. The field description indicates that you have to enter
whole folder names (which is no good to me, the number of sub-folders
is quite large and the names are quite varied). I've also ticked the
'exclude folders' checkbox, but that gets rid of Test Site 1, Test
Site 2, Test Site 3 from the dropdown totally and thus I don't get to
see index.html.

My question is this - is there a way to do what I want here?
