Hello,

i use FileRequest() and the condition to abort the selection i see in some example is:

Code: Select all

if file$ = "" then End
or

Code: Select all

if file$ = "" then print("Request cancelled")
The problem i define a default file in my project and if i click on "Cancel" button, file$ is different than "" and selection is not cancelled...

An idea to resolve that please ?

Thanks for your help.

What do you mean by "selection is not cancelled"?

If i click on Cancel button from the requester, it continue to execute the script because file$ <> ""

I haven't seen any issues with FileRequest(). Can you provide a short full example code how to reproduce the issue (MCVE)?

With retest, the problem comes when i execute my script from Hollywood command.

When i launch from compiled executable and when i click on Cancel button in the requester, the soft "END".

I try to write a full example soon.

I think my problem come from a bad example with file$ as variable for the file instead f$...

I have changed all variable from file$ to f$ and will retest.

"File" is an argument for FileRequest(), i think it cause some troubles...
