When I use RequestFile with only ONE file type (like, just PNG files), it still has "All Files" as an option.

Is there anyway I can limit to one file type only?

Thanks

MapName$ = RequestFile("Load Map", "ddm", False)

That only shows *.ddm and has "ddm files" in the file types box. Dont know why it doesnt work for you.

I get the same problem.. I really don't like the BlitzPlus file requester so I use the GetOpenFileName function from the BlitzSys lib.

I get this problem too, using WinXP Pro.

Well, my current app has been using B+'s GUI stuff for a long time...it would be a big head-ache to change it.

I think I can live with it for a while but I hope Mark fixes it soon.

It sounds like somebody is using an API call that is not compatible for all versions of Windows?
