Choosing a file with mouse and input into application

[Delgadop]

I need help with the following.


1. I need to choose any file with a mouse.

2. I want to be able to have the file chosen to be opened up in an application so that I can process that file.

Select in a folder window? Try accessible object functions. Look in floating toolbar.

Then macro can press Ctrl+C, and use function GetClipboardFiles to get selected file path into a variable. Then use the variable with run.

Please give more details on how to do this operation
