Hi Fyodor,

quite some time ago, I posted a vbs script for choosing a 
directory starting from some root. In the meantime it evolved 
a little bit more ...

You have to save the attachment as bbrowse.vbs and then you have
to adjust the following two paths:

Line 26, Col 9: Install Directory of BlackBox
Line 31, Col 8: Root path of your BlackBox working directories

The script then calls a file browser, where you can choose any
directory below your root path ....

Pushing Cancel calls a second browser with your Desktop as root.

regards

> Here is a little trick I have not been aware of, but that proves very 
> useful.
> 
> Create a shortcut (*.lnk) to your BlackBox.exe.
> In the Target field, append  /Use %CD%
> In the Start in field, put %CD%
> (CD stands for Current Directory.)
> Copy this shortcut to any project folder.
> That's it: running BlackBox with this shortcut starts BB in 
> the server 
> mode with the current folder as working directory.
> 
> It is then easy to have BB project folders anywhere on the hard disk 
> (navigating with a script becomes impossible with many projects 
> scattered all over the hard disk as in my case; I tend to use BB for

> This also solved the folowing problem:
> I am setting up a number of computer classes these days,

> network disk,
> with BlackBox residing on a read-only network disk.
> 
> A procedure (attached) creates a bunch of directories, each 
> containing a copy of the shortcut;
> the directory (students') names are specified after the commander.
