Adding a file browser
in [Authorware]

From: TomWhite on 29 Jan 2008 09:50 I want to incorporate a File Browser (e.g. Windows Explorer) within an Authorware Application. Is there an Active X control offering this facility or any other available options?

From: Erik **AdobeCommunityExpert** on 29 Jan 2008 10:35 You can, of course, include the IE ActiveX control. That's so married to Windows Explorer I would think there's a way to 'change it' from IE to WE... If I enter 'C:' into the IE field, Windows Explorer opens in a new window... In short, I'd think you could use the IE Ax control but not sure how. Maybe there's a variation on it (WE Ax?) that you could use instead? Apurva has an Xtra (or U32) for embedding a browser in AW...maybe it can be used for a file browser as well. Otherwise, I echo Chris's reply.
