File object question

[Farflame]

After I select a file using the file object, what condition do I need to look for on my next line in order to use that file? I've got it to load my text file into my list box no problem, but when using the condition 'Last action Ok' or indeed, most of the other file object conditions, I've noticed that it's just loading the file into the listbox over and over again.

Add an "Only once when event loops" to your "Last Action OK" event. Also make sure you clear any errors from the File Object. It will stop working if it encounters any errors.

Also try using the "Powerful Dialogs" extension by Jaffob instead of the File Object unless you are dealing with directories. You can also use the "File-Folder" Object by Sphax.
