Hi list...
I thought there would have been a method somewhere to open a
folder...maybe in buddyAPI or the fileXtra or something. Is there any

Well, you can't really "open" a folder as you would a file. I think you
mean open it onscreen so you can choose a file? If so, look at both
fileXtra and fileIO - FileXtra has functions like fileOpenDialog (for
getting a filename), fileSaveAsDialog (for choosing a name to save a

open theFolder with "explorer.exe" is what I was looking for.
(Hmm...but I thought I remember reading somewhere that there may be

You don't say which platform you're interested in, but this will work on
Windows using BuddyAPI:

You can use 'baOpenFile' method of Buddy API, which works on both of
Windows and Macintosh (I tried with Director MX/Windows XP and MacOS

result = baOpenFile(the moviePath, "normal")
