Browse to and Select Folder

[ueberyak]

I have a script which is successfully using GetFileList to return all folder names from a hardcoded location but I want the user to be able to Browse to any folder they like. I tried Input and I tried created a dialog but I didn't get either to return the desired effect.

Below is the hardcoded version.

Code: Select all

let>GFL_TYPE=1
GetFileList>\\Directory\Folder\*.*,files,;

Separate>files,;,file_names

Let>k=0
Repeat>k
  Let>k=k+1
  WriteLn>C:\FileListTest\Test.txt,,file_names_%k%
Until>k,file_names_count

mdl>Job complete.

I know how to handle the variable, I just need to know how to get it.

Ugh. Never mind.

Let>INPUT_BROWSE=2
Input>

This did the trick.

You could also do it with a custom dialog, if you wanted more features or to make it prettier, but if you just want a quick way to browse for a folder your method is the simplest.
