Hi Randy,
FileDialog takes as argument a java.awt.Frame, that coincides with a
windows Dialog box, not a web Frame.
I'm not sure, so if someones disagree,
please correct my explanation, but I think a code that uses this class
can be runned only as a java application.
If you need to parse the file you select, maybe it would be easier to
upload the file to the server and read there (using
WOFileUpload)
Otherwise you can use javascript to open a dialog box on client side,
to choose a file (I'm
not an expert of javascript, but I think there's a call you can use)
I hope this can help you,

Hi Daniele,
I'm using a java class called FileDialog which takes a
Frame object in its constructor method. It takes the
Frame object so that the FileDialog object can hover
above the page from which it was called.
I need to place the java Frame instance in my page in
order for the FileDialog modal window to appear above
my page.
Randy.
