FolderBrowse()

Previous Next

Opens a common dialog that allows the user to browse for a folder (directory). You can use this when you want the user to specify a target directory, for example

Syntax

FolderBrowse(<title>,<start-directory>)

Parameters

Title

The text to be shown in the label in the dialog box.

start-directory

Specifies which folder should be selected when the dialog opens. By default, this is My Computer.

You can also use environment variables in this parameter, such as %%SYSTEMDIR%%\app or %%TEMP%%\jos. The USoft registration database entries are searched first for such variables, and if they are not found, the standard DOS environment is searched.

NOTE:

References to SystemDir are internally mapped to the version key.
