Question

I know that there are some issues with doing this in a web application however I’m just writing my own script for my own PC and I’m writing in javascript. I know that you can get a file system object by calling:

var Fo = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Is there a method that will let me browse for a particular folder that I want? I haven’t used javascript before so I’m not sure what to look for really.

Thanks

EDIT: I misspoke. Apparently what I’m using is JScript which is not exactly the same thing as javascript

Answer 1

I figured it out. Once I knew I was looking for JScript…

var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
var lib;
lib = objShell.BrowseForFolder(0,"Select Library Folder",0);
