Browseing using the input box

Post by kpassaur » Fri Nov 25, 2016 3:48 pm

I don't know what I am missing as I copied the line from the help file. I want the user to be able to select one file and I know the name of it. So I tried what you see at the beginning and I tried it a couple of other ways with no success. So I then copied the line from the help file and that didn’t work either. (see below) So I opened up the editor in a separate window so there would be no chance of any kind of conflict etc. etc. and it didn’t work either. Any idea as to what it could be that I am doing wrong? The second trial is cut and paste from the online help.


Let>INPUT_BROWSE_FILTER=Text files (samplefile.txt)|samplefile.TXT
Input>lick,Browse to and select the sample file(samplefile.txt)

So I tried this as well and all files are still seen

Let>INPUT_BROWSE_FILTER=Text files (*.txt)|*.TXT
Input>lick,Browse to and select the sample file (samplefile.txt)

Let>INPUT_BROWSE_FILTER=.xls|*.xls
Input>Click,Browse to and select the sample file (.xls)
Running ms 14.3.04
Loving MS's Capabilities!!!

Apparently the issue is that I had not updated. Will do so tomorrow. Thank you
