In the folder there are two pdfs starting with 17124 I created a variable for the pdf(s) I want to choose from, vinv = '17124'
Here are the results: |FILTER PDF Files (*.pdf)#.inv*.pdf it opened the proper folder but showed no pdf files. |FILTER PDF Files &vinv_.pdf it shows all the pdf files in the folder. |FILTER PDF Files (*.pdf)&vinv*.pdf it shows all the pdf files in the folder. |FILTER PDF Files &vinv*.pdf it shows all the pdf files in the folder. What am I doing wrong? The filter does not seem to work.

Then use the launch command on the selected pdf. Example filtering pdf starting with "def" in the filename PLUGINS LoadFileName vFileName+ |INITIAL_DIR x:\ + |SHOW_BUTTONS ON+ |CREATE_FOLDER_ICON OFF+ |DELETE_FOLDER_ICON OFF+ |WIDTH 500+ |HEIGHT 400+ |FILTER PDF Files (*.pdf)#def*.pdf+ |HIDE_READ_ONLY ON+ |INCLUDE_NON_FOLDERS OFF+ Dan Goldberg -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2015 9:31 AM To: Dan Goldberg Subject: [RBASE-L] - [No Subject] I understand the CMD_EXPLORE is used to open a specific folder. Can this code or is there another code that can open a folder but then only show files within that folder based on a variable? I do not want my user to have to search through all the pdfs. I know I can launch a specific pdf based on the order number. However if there are two pdfs due to a split shipment, I want the user to see just those pdfs rather than all the pdfs in the folder. Or if both can print to the screen one after another that may work. The pdfs will have the first eight common digits with the last being different.
