When I open a file, I'd like to have the directory open in detail view

[Jabot]

When I open a directory to read or write a file, I'd like the directory to open is the "details" mode, showing file dates, sizes etc. Can this be done? I'm using Labview 8.5.1.

Thanks

You need direct windows API calls for this, there was a vi around somewhere which I use to allow for multiple file selections. If I remember correctly, it was posted by Wiebe@Carya somewhere on the ni site. I'm not sure if this can be done, however (depends on the MS interface).
