Ah all right thanks a lot, it works!
And now i have the next small problem.

Now i tried to read out all filenames which are included in the
selected path
with files=file_search(dialog_pickfile(/dir),'*.tif')
I wanted to compare them with a defined string array, to know which
files are missing, and so which computations cannot be proceed.
the problem is, that in my defined array, i just have the filenames.
Because the path is variable. But the result of
files=file_search(dialog_pickfile(/dir),'*.tif') gives me the filename
with the whole path. Is there any possibility to get just the
filenames in a path, without any path link?

thanks a lot again!
