SaveDialog Filters

[Joscpe]

I have A FileSaveDialog() with the filters, Text(*.txt), Ini(*.ini), HTML(*.htm) and All(*.*). How can I get it to add the filter on the end of the file when they press Save so they dont have to type it in?

Dose This Help?

FileSaveDialog("save", @ScriptDir, "Text Files (*.txt) |Ini (*.ini) |HTML (*.htm) |All(*.*)")

All you have to do is seperate the filetypes with |

I already have that part, I just want it to add the extention to the end of the file automaticaly for them.

I know what you mean.

You have to add the *.txt extension yourself, dont you? I have that same problem in BetaPad, I'm not sure how to fix it though, so this would be useful to me aswell.

If Not StringInStr($FileName, $extension, 0) Then
     $FileName = $FileName & "." & $extension
EndIf

Like that?

If Not StringInStr($FileName, $extension, 0) Then
     $FileName = $FileName & "." & $extension
EndIf

Like that?

If Not StringInStr($FileName, $extension, 0, -1) Then
     $FileName = $FileName & "." & $extension
EndIf

You would still need to figure out which Filter they chose...

I don't think its possible

[James]

That way works, but you need to find the filter.. Hmm.. Grrr...

Ok, I see. I'll work on it...

[James]

I don't think it can be done without a UDF.

[Joscpe]

I guess I could always make my own save dialog, but it would look pretty crapy...

[James]

Like a popup GUI.

I started making it in a GUI but I though that there must be another way of making it, I just dont know how.

[Joscpe]

So, is there no way to do it??

Should i just give up?

[James]

Look for a UDF, there must be one.
