I am trying something simple and am missing the key piece.

I am trying to allow the user to select the folder to save a notepad file to.

I use the Variable Set String with folder prompt to get the path into %Foldername%.

When it comes time to save the processed file I have tried the “Open folder in explorer to” & “Change directory/folder to” to no avail.

Can you help with what I am missing?

Thanks!

This is just the MEP standard. IMHO you should use it everywhere but there are a few dialog boxes that allow them not to be used.

Thanks Cory!

I have no problem in using it.

I was just wondering if it had some effect on how MEP interpreted the variable like the “&” in some other languages.

Thanks again!!

I have not been able to find an explanation of why there is a standard of entering the “%” before and after a variable and what effect it has on the macro if it is not used.

Can anyone take a stab?
