I would like to create a CD that the user can browse the contents of. For example, when the autoplay runs, a window to the right will display the "contents" folder, containing other files and folders.

Under distribution, I have a contents folder that has updates, etc.. I see the Dialog>Folder Browse. How do I show the contents of the "contents" folder that will be on the CD?

For the default folder in the Browse Folder Dialog use:

%SrcDir%\Contents

You can also use a web browser object and point it's url to the dir location on your disk (ie: "%srcdir%/contents"). That keeps the file browser window in your main application window...but of course it looks different depending on OS settings and general look.

Thanks, that helps. What I was actually looking for is for the contents of that folder to be displayed within the HotSpot object properties window. Is this supposed to work that way or am I missing something.

The dialog is not embedded in the AMS window. If you want to have it embedded, you might try Antjedi suggestion.
