QUESTION POSED ON: 11 June 2003
Using LotusScript, I want to provide a user with a standard Windows file select pop-up box. The user will choose a file that I will then attach to a Rich Text field. My current code uses an inputbox function to get the path and file name. This is clunky at best (although it does work). Do you have any other suggestions?

>
I suggest you use @Prompt([LocalBrowse]). This gives the user a neat pop-up box, in which they can search their local system. The function returns the name of the file to the variable you assign to the function, and it allows you also to set a filter of which file types to look for.
