Can't read anything after FileOpenDialog

[Vindicator209 1]

A part of my script reads from an ini script every time it is called. It also loads a picture to use at the background, however, after doing this:

$NewApp = FileOpenDialog("Choose an application",@DesktopDir,"Executables (*.exe)")

After that, I can't read anythign using IniRead, and my picture doesn't show up on my control.

If you read the page in the helpfile about FileOpenDialog() you will see this in the end of the remarks section:

@WorkingDir is changed on successful return.

That means that if you use any relative paths and the like you will have problems. I myself had it in one script and I solved it by doing

FileChangeDir(@ScriptDir)

after every FileOpenDialog(). Edited October 7, 2008 by AdmiralAlkex

Ah, perfect. I had no idea what was going on, I kept thinking I must have messed up my some IniRead() 's

Yeah, I understand it now though, so thanks!

I was thinking the same thing until i had read the whole page about FileOpenDialog() a few times, it's so easy to miss if you not know what you are searching for! Edited October 7, 2008 by AdmiralAlkex
