Problem with Dialog.FileBrowse

[Cybergraph]

I'm trying to simply add the choosen (by the Dialog.FileBrowse) file path to a label:

my_file = Dialog.FileBrowse(true, "Choose a file, program, document or bookmark", Working_drive..":\\", "All files (*.*)|*.*|", "", "", false, true);

if my_file[1] ~= "CANCEL" and my_file ~= "nil" then
Label.SetText("Label1", my_file[1]);

end

If the choosen file is a .exe, or .doc or any other extension this works fine, but if the user chooses a .lnk (example "my_program.lnk") the label gets "C:\program files\my_program.exe" instead of "my_program.lnk" that is the result I expect and that I need.
The same problem happens if the user chooses a .url (favorite link), the result string is "C:\temp\temporary internet files\Content.IE5\X4RBTE0\www.website[1])"

Is there anything wrong with the code or there is a workaround for this?

Many thanks for your kind attention.

The problem depends from the *.* filter in the Dialog.FileBrowse.

Infact, if i use

Dialog.FileBrowse(true, "Choose a file, program, document or bookmark", Working_drive..":\\", "All files (*.*)|*.???|", "", "", false, true);

it works, and the Label gets the correct shortcut .lnk or .url path.

DOS always helps!

Better, use *.?* so you can parse files with any extension length.

Also, when you use the folder and file browse functions, (as far as I know) you need to specify "\\" at the end of the search path.

Dear Centauri Soldier

Infact, the searcing path is Working_drive..":\\"
