ProFileOpen a Directory

Hi Everybody!

I'm programming a pro toolkit dll in wf 3.

I am trying to get a directory path through a ProFileOpen Dialog, similar to the function of the ProE Dialog for Setting up the Working Directory.

There is the ProLine filter_string as the second argument that filters the file type.
The idea would be adding a filter string that only allows the selection of a directory.

My question now:

Does anyone know the file type filter for a directory? Or is this actually possible with the ProFile Object?

If its not possible .. what would be a simple alternative?

thx in advance

Kind Regards

Domi

I would use ProDirectoryChoose()

Description

purpose of allowing the user to select a directory.

Try using the API ProDirectoryChoose().

Function ProDirectoryChoose
