      How can I open a dialog box that already points to a specific folder?






var myFolder=Folder("/C/XYZ");  
var myMask="INDD:*.indd";  
var myFile=myFolder.openDlg("Select Files To Open", myMask, true);



      Also, how can I check with the script if there are files within the folder?






var myFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Please select path to files");  
if (myFolder!=null) {  
	var fileList = myFolder.getFiles(); 
	alert("The selected folder contains " + fileList.length + " files."); 
}
