Open or ask file, or other?
I'd like to get the user to select any file they wish via the file browser on their default OS. In this case I'm talking about the Mac OSX OS. I'd like a dialog box to open which allows them to click a file and select "ok" etc. Problem is I can only seem to initiate the dialog box to do 1 thing, (1) they pick a name and location to save a file. I briefly thought of the Open command but you need to know the path for that. I seem to be suffering another brain fart, if someone can point me to the proper method to allow a user to pick a file on their own via a file browser then it would go a long way to closing off this otherwise great weekend.
