File dialog to default directory

I am using 6.1 and am storing SGL files, all to the same directory (C:\Daq\Data).  Is there a way to force the file dialog to this directory when using the read SGL file?  They only way I have found is to specify the actual file name in the path.  Problem is that we use different files for different part parameters.

Hi,

yes you can do. It is easy. Use the File Dialog vi located (File I/O => Advanced fiel functions)

to feed the path input of Read SGL.

Look at the picture...

So Easy when you know what your doing.  This works perfectly.  I didn't think you could use this because it is used in the Read SGL.VI.  Thanks for the quick response.
