Guest Kardon Coupé Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Dear All, I was wondering is there only %1 available when changing Folder Options/File Types? I'm noticing the %1 passed the whole filename including folder, I think this is causing a program with the DOS program I'm using and I was wondering if there is anyway of just passing the filename? Hope someone can help.. Regards Paul.
