Hello, Peter! > After changing the file extension in this dialog from "*.z07" to > "correct" value "*.*" I get this [3]. > Strange! I cannot verify that behaviou here. I feared that! :-/ > So, my problem is that by default the file extension is *not* set to > "*.*", but to "*.z07". > How can one change this "default extension"? This is a very good question ... > And even files with this extension are *not* shown. And manually > changing the extension to any other value has *no* effect. > What happens if you enter "*.*" in the filename box? "*.*" + [Enter] => The whole content of the folder is shown, but the file extension in the drop down list at the bottom does not change. "*.jpg" (or any other extension) + [Enter] => All the specified files in the regarding folder are shown *and* the file extension in the drop down list is set accordingly. After closing and re-opening the dialog the extension is "*.z07" again. > After all it seems to be a Windows problem. AFAIK TheBat calls > standard Windows functions for the open dialog. I testet the behavior of the native Windows file open dialog with StarOffice (OpenOffice.org) without any problems ... Cheers!
