Design is very specific. We are not mind readers. are you using on event mode? are you using a child GUI??... for the button ? or the notepad UI?

any code to start from?

maybe...

You can not use GUIGetMsg() with On-Event() mode

It still does what you'd like it to do, correct?

If there's a problem then it can be taken out and replaced with:

While 1
    Sleep(1000)
WEnd

So it doesn't close till you want it to.

Apixen,

Did you look at FileOpenDialog in the Help file as Valuater suggested? As stated in the help file it:

"Returns the full path of the file(s) chosen"

Your question earlier referred to:

Client.exe

Folder Path:

Input here

With FileOpenDialog you get the folder for free! If you wanted to select a different folder for some reason then FileSelectFolder will allow to do so.

Get it?

K, How does the "button" React? Example please. (Functions)

No, Im not an expert to this stuff, I'm just learning.

No, I don't think you are.

Do you make your own bed?

Demand it? What position are you in that you can make demands. I am frankly shocked anyone has chosen to help you never mind three MVPs.

Ask politely, show some effort and you will not have retorts such as mine and Martin's.

Apixen,

Answer the problems given, That's the purpose of this topic, and section

That is most definitely NOT the way to get help here.

Let me explain. This forum is not a 24/7 support forum - those who answer are only here because they like helping others and have some time to spare. We also expect that when you post here you have had a go at solving your problems beforehand. Having some code to work on is a great help - it saves us having to write something from scratch - and no-one here is too keen to help the "code it for me" brigade.

So arriving here with a very peremptory manner demanding examples (as you have also done in previous topics) is not going to make you many friends. There is a wonderful Help file crammed full fo examples for you to try. There are excellent tutorials here and here and you will find other tutorials in the Wiki (the link is at the top of the page). There are even video tutorials on YouTube if you prefer watching to reading.

Now go and write some code yourself using the command suggestions that you have been given above and see if you can get some way towards doing what you want. You know where we are when you run into difficulties - but I would strongly recommend a more consilatory posting style if you want any real help.
