Android Question Async file dialog for beginners

[johnmie]

was trying to include a dialog for the user to select a (or create a new) directory to store downloaded files, but failed miserable.

Then purchased Wyken Seagrave's book but the only reference to file dialog I found does not mention async and throws a "too many parameters" error when compiling.

Can anyone help me, please?
Thank you, john m.

Thank you Stardust for this prompt reply,
downloaded your library before and used it successfully with inputBox events. Even downloaded the latest version, but still cannot select just a folder, let alone create a new one.

Where did I go wrong?

I have updated my Library in version 0.06. Now you can select a folder and create one. You can not rename or delete a folder or file at this time

No.

what is the function of button "| Files |"

This is a separator between the folder and the files.
