Display Select File Dialog Action
Description:
This Action displays the Select File Dialog and prompts the user to select one or more files.
Properties:
Dialog Title:
Enter the text, or a previously stored text Variable, to be used as the Dialog title.
Initial Folder:
Enter or choose the initial folder to be opened when browsing for a file. This is where the Select File Dialog action will start the user looking for the file(s).
File Filter:
Choose a filter to limit the files retrieved. This allows wild cards, for example, "*.txt" or "document?.doc" (without the quotes). If you want to allow for multiple file filters the user can choose from, separate your choices with a semi-colon, for example, "*.txt;*.exe".
Keep File Selection Dialog Always on Top:
Choose whether the File Selection Dialog should always remain on top of all other windows.
Check if File Exists:
If checked, this Action will then only accept a file (or multiple files) that already exists.
Allow Multiple Selection:
Choose whether this Action will allow the user to select more than one file or not.
Store Selected File(s) into:
Enter the name of the Variable that will store the file(s). If Allow Multiple Selection is checked, this variable will contain a list of files, even if the list is only one entry. If Allow Multiple Selection is not checked, this variable will contain a single file, not a list.
Store Button Pressed into:
The user will automatically be given the choice of Open or Cancel. Enter a name to be the variable that will store the text of the button pressed.
