In VBScript: I'm looking to open a dialog which will prompt the user to select a text file which will then be used to loop through selecting various images and continue doing various tasks. From what I've seen, it's easier to just use openDialog in JS. That's fine, I can embed or call a JS script from my VB script, but then how do I get that selected file (which Photoshop won't accept as an active document type) as a variable into the rest of my script. Similarly, I would like to allow the user to chose a save file name and location through the interface. Right now I hardcode the text file name in my script, but would like to add a little more flexibility instead of having to alter my script each time with a different file name reference. Any ideas? Thanks Matt
