strBrowseBase is a string variable that contains the path of a set of files.
I would like to be able to double-click on this string and open the folder
Are there any clever tricks to do this, or do I just have to use a button?
How do I set the caption of the button to the path it opens?
Hey @DonnEdwards !
I think the typical way is to put a region over the string and then get the events via the region control.
If you were to use a button then setting the text is like this:
?MyButton{PROP:Text} = ‘the path’
Another approach is to leave the string as is and then next to that have a button with either the ellipse icon or three dots [...] and clicking the button does your thing.
or use a read-only ENTRY control (background colored btnface) instead of a STRING. You can handle alert keys in the entry control and it allows the user to select/copy the current data.
