Mounted File Volumes under Windows

[mbitzko]

I'm using IWIDGETS:EXTFILESELECTIONBOX to display a file selection dialog. When I attempt to access either a mounted volumn or a network drive, it does not traverse the directory volumn correctly. For example, if I specify under FILE the path c:/Tmp, everthing is what would be expected. However, if I specify a mounted or network drive such as \\BlackBox\tmp, it becomes confused as I attempt to navigate the directory tree. The standard windows commands work fine, for example to select "My Network Places" and then to navigate down \\BlackBox\tmp.

Is this a limitation, do I have to enable certain capability, or should I be using an alternative TCL library function?

Is it just a typo or did you try [red]//[/red]BlackBox[red]/[/red]tmp?

I have never used IWidgets but the standard tk_getOpenFile has always worked fine for me across networks and such.

Thanks - I tried the alternative syntax, and that still gave me a bad path. It may be a limitation. The tk_getOpenFile seems to work. In this case - it's probably better to use something that works versus something that does not. I'll switch. Thanks.
