Hi Bob,

A couple of suggestions:

Are you using Rev 2.6? If so, there have been changes in the answer  
file filtering. They are detailed in the What's New text file.

What happens if you use no filtering and allow any file type to be  
selected?

Get your routine to "put" the file path before trying to open it and  
see if that looks correct.

Cheers,
Sarah
