Paul,

You're right, most of the functionality is similar to DIALOG_PICKFILE.
But I wanted a bit more flexibility from that dialog which, since it is
a native widget, I could not modify. The difference really is in the
API for this modal widget function: the addition of the FILTER_IN and
FILTER_OUT keywords (added this morning). I also added a REVERSE ORDER
checkbox that gives the user the option to view the files in reverse
alphabetical order. This is useful at our facility where our users
will try to sift through hundreds of files in a single directory and
the only ones that they really want are the latest ones...i.e the last
data files in the directory listing. This was an attempt at providing
that functionality.

See the same web site as I listed before for latest source code and
screen shot.

Thanks for the words of encouragement, Paul.

Rob
