Hi Doug,

To set as default ‘Desktop’, ‘My Documents’ or some other folder is a matter of personal liking. I personally prefer to work with my files on Desktop and put them away, when finished.
But this is not so important.
Just replacing
var myLastFile = new File("~/Desktop/");
with
var myLastFile = Folder.myDocuments;
will make ‘My Documents’ to open as default.

But the problem is different:

      The problem is I am sending this script to someone else it and the folder
      he will want it to default to will be changing as the project he works
      on changes.





As far as I understand, the user wants the script to ‘remember’ the last opened folder.
And I posted the snippet to show my approach – using application’s insertLabel and extractLabel methods. I think it has an advantage: no need to create an additional file to store preferences.

We used to have the same problem at work, because we keep our files on a network drive and it is very annoying to walk through several subfolders each time you want to open/place a file. We solved this by using ‘Default Folder’.
