That's one work around, The FileOpen Action is tied to a couple of controls
though (Menu, ToolButton) and I was hoping to do all the work inside (so the
menu & toolbutton remain synchronised). It kind of defeats the purpose of
the actions if I have to handle this myself.
If it can't be done I'll probably write my own action for opening the file
but it seems to me that this is a very common situation so canceling the
dialog within the BeforeExecute should be possible returning Cancel as the
result.
I think I've just answered my own question, changing the dialogs execute
event ???, is this the way to go or is their a simpler solution?
