There seems to be a problem for VDS to take the path parameter so that the directory browser
will open with the specified directory selected. It works fine for me in Win98 but not in XP.

Code:
%%dir = @dirdlg(Choose folder,C:\Program Files)

Hey Dread, Smile

Have ya tried adding a trailing backslash?
Code:

%%dir = @dirdlg(Choose folder, C:\Program Files\)


Cheers, Mac Smile

Thanks, Mac!

Meanwhile I trashed this entire section and rewrote it in a totally different manner and now it works,
I think (thorough test pending). Still I cannot grasp, though, why the first routine was OK in W98
and not in XP. But it involves a lot of directory juggling, so maybe I had overlooked something.

If I stumple upon an answer I'll post it.

PS: Just tried out the @dirdlg with and without backslashes and it seems there is no difference.
