Browse for folder

[gjpearl]

I am working on a script that needs to select a folder from the applications browse for folder window.

Better Description: I want to save files to a specific folder within an application. I can not type in the path I have to browse how can I do that. The browse window dialog is attached.

err.... Fileopendialog() or Filesavedialoge()? its in the helpfile

is that what you mean

Does that actually use the application browse window or does it create it own. I need to use the application one.

[CodyBarrett]

it creates a dialog box that you can choose files... and exits once you hit 'ok' 'cancle'... REMEBER do this

$anythingyouwant = fileopendialog() or else the selected wont be saved as anything... READ the helpfile man.... or do you mean something else entirey?

EDIT

i read your post wrong... as far as i know if its not an app YOU made with autoit you cant retrieve the value of the selsected file\folder

Try AU3Info (available via Scite, Tools menu) to get control info.
