Bernie: I use the following plug-in: PLUGINS loadfilename.rbl vfile_name + |fullpath ON + |initial_dir &vfolder_name + |filter TEXT files (*.TXT)#*.txt#data files (*.DAT)#*.DAT + |title SELECT FILENAME
In this particular example the variable vfile_name will return the name of the selected file including path. The variable vfolder_name has the name of the directory where you want to start, in your case you can set to 'a:\'; it is also set up to look for files with DAT and TXT Javier, Javier Valencia, PE President Valencia Technology Group, L.L.C. 14315 S.
