ok ... I'll go back and do it again.

Was not trying to piss anyone off ... what I posted was an attempt to keep it as simple as possible. The graphic size was reduced to fit the forum requirements.

I'll redo this part of the schematic function. I think the attempt at a solution kept evolving to this current point because the defaults were not happening.

Looking at the STRING feeding the FILEDIALOGUE prim [which I could see change], didn't locate to that place. That is what I meant by it not working. I've been known to over-think

So ... I'll redo that part of the schematic, and hopefully solve this.

Update report ...

I have found the 'Bone of Contention' ... and has been, thusly, solved.

The culprit ... the '\' end backslash in the defaulting name feeding the FileDialog prim.

Sure ... now you say, 'Of course' ... what the heck you been lookin' at ...



To this happy resolution ... I still needed the PATH splitter module to parse the 'defaults'. I cleared out the Sample/Hold prims. The LAST prim is still being used as a switch. [this may prove to be un-needed, but it is not causing any issue. Now that it works, I can test to see if I can eliminate the LAST prim ... will see].

Anyway. The Utility app was still working, but now it remembers the exact locations [which is a numbered folder] so that I can clearly know which version Master file was last used.

Other benefits. I now have a pair of modules that will handle default directory locations that are stored/accessed from disk. First time ever needing something like this ... now available for a future project.

As a non-programmer, and a FS dabbler ... I've learned something new [for me]. Seeing a working solution, I also see how simple this really was. I'm also [painfully] aware of how a missing '\' can cause total chaos and confusion on my part. It is also a bit embarrassing to realize the oversight

thx to those following, and to those who offered help. Guiding a novice can be a challenge
