browse for directory from DCL

What I would like to do is be able to have a button in a DCL dialog that brings up the standard directory browser (getfiled ?) so that the user can select an appropriate directory. Then I want it to go back to the DCL dialog and input that directory path into a Edit-text field (to display the selected directory to the user). How would I go about doing this? Here is the DCL code I have so far for the dialog:

 
BGEbatch: dialog { label = "BGE Batch Process" ;
: row { label = "Directory" ; width = 50;
: edit_box { key = "Dir" ; edit_width = 35 ; edit_limit = 256 ; alignment = left ; }
: button { key = "browse" ; label = "Browse" ; mnemonic = "B" ; }
: ok_cancel
} 

I will have other options in the dialog box, so I want the user to be able to go back to the dialog box after selecting the directory. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. I know there are many batch process applications out there, but I guess I jsut want the satisfaction of creating it myself, or at least helping to create it. Also, its a good learning experience.

This is what I use:

Perhaps take a look at the BFind, Script Writer, or Attribute Extractor - all of which have an example of what you want to achieve.

Lee,

Thanks for the quick response! The fuctionality that you put in the ScriptWriter is exactly what I would like to do. So is there anything else I need to incorporate besides the local functions of Dir_text and Dirdialog? Thanks again!

You'll have to study the code - bear in mind that BFind is more recent and some of the subs have been tweaked since.

Ok, I guess I can do that. Thanks again for the help. I appreciate it.
