Show dialog filename in string object ??

[anma004]

Hey, i'm a newbie so please go easy on me
I'm coding a simple Mp3 player with the Common Dialog object to open the file and Direct Show object to play it.
How do i show the filename in text on the screen ?
Should i use the String Object and if, how do i use it ?
Going nuts..

Regards..

Use the String Object and set it to the filename of the common dialog object.

+Open Dialog - Ok
--Change Alterable String (Click on Retrieve data from an object) and choose "Get Filename" from the Common Dialog Object.

This appears to be a bug with Dialog Object.

It's one of the more tricky ones only happening sometimes.
Clickteam has it on the bug list, but for now I'd advice anyone to use an alternative object like powerful dialog object or file object.
