How can I ....

[Jeff Abell]

use the pattern input on the file dialog function to filter a directory for
files containing a number of different extensions?

I can only make it filter on one extension using *.xyz on this input.


Ta very much,

Jeff

It's trivial to use a for loop with N equal to the # of extension you're
looking for ?

Regards

Antonio

Separate each pattern with a semicolon.
Example: " *.exe;*.vi;*.ctl "
