To open a file, i have the file-open button, as well as a space where the name should come in.


When the user clicks the button, the file-open dialogue box opens, and you can choose a file.However, once a file is chosen, the name of the file is not displayed in the caption.How do i get to show tthis filename?

Simply wire the output path to the indicator (path indicator) and be sure it's wide enough, or if you only want the filename instead of the whole path, strip the path and you'll get the path and the filename separately. Strip path is in the file I/O palette.
Hope this helps
