Note the results of FileOpenDialog() in the help file:

Success: Returns the full path of the file(s) chosen. Results for multiple selections are "Directory|file1|file2|..."

So if you simply StringSplit() the returned list with this you will get your array. By checking the count of results in [0] of the array you can tell if there were multiple or single selections. In the demo below you could put FileCopy() or whatever else you want done in place of _Usefile().

Demo:

#include <Array.au3>

$sSelections = FileOpenDialog("Pick multiple files", @WindowsDir & "", "All files(*.*)", 4 + 8)
If @error Then Exit
ConsoleWrite("$sSelections = " & $sSelections & @LF)

$aSelections = StringSplit($sSelections, "|")
_ArrayDisplay($aSelections, "$aSelections")

If $aSelections[0] = 1 Then
    ; Single selection
    _UseFile($aSelections[1])
ElseIf $aSelections[0] > 1 Then
    ; Multiple selections
    For $n = 2 To UBound($aSelections) - 1
        _UseFile($aSelections[1] & "\" & $aSelections[$n])
    Next
EndIf

Func _UseFile($sFile)
    ConsoleWrite("Debug: _Usefile(): $sFile = " & $sFile & @LF)
EndFunc

mobster,

M23 has allready wrote something for me

So why not keep to the same thread?

but I am still stuck

And as a description of your problem that leaves a lot to be desired.

Let us continue this in the original topic where you have expanded a bit on that line - if PsaltyDS is happy to do that.
