Blip Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'm trying to have a dialog open that can browse to a file location and grab a file name, like "Program.exe". FileOpenDialog is able to capture the full path + file name, like "C:\program files\program\program.exe" but I'm looking for a similar browse ability that gets and stores just the file name. I've looked through almost all the File functions and perhaps I've overlooked it but I can't find something that does this, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. In a pinch I guess I can truncate the product of FileOpenDialog but I'd like to avoid that if possible. Thanks for any assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 You can split the full path by using function _PathSplit.

Blip Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 You can split the full path by using function _PathSplit.This'll make the truncating job a lot easier, wasn't aware of _PathSplit. I suppose this is a decent work around if no built in browse function does this already, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
