Hi,

I m new to InDesign Programming.
I have a menu that creates a dialog with different controls in it.
The dialog will appear only if there is an open file. I need to display the name of the open file as a static text in the dialog. I know to get the name of the current file but don't know how to pass this each time the dialog is opened.
Can someone help me in doing this?
I m using InDesign CS3 in MAC OS.
Thank You.
