Hello. In any software when opening or for example adding files i can select multiple files by using alt. Let’s say I select a bunch of files within the same folder and gets a path, for example see "Original path" below. To save time I copy the "Original path". Next time I will open/add same files I paste the "Original path" into the open/add dialog. BUT unfortunately not all characters are pasted into the text box, in this case see "Pasted path" below. I understand that this has something to do with the limit of characters of a path. But still, I can extend the "path" by manually selecting the missing objects. Can you turn off this limitation in Win 7? Please assist, thanks in advance. ------------------------ "Orginial path": 1000-06-01GB-12-03.indd "0000-00-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-00-01GB-01-03.indd" "0000-00-01GB-10-03.indd" "0000-00-01GB-11-11.indd" "0000-04-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-06-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-06-01GB-70-04.indd" "0000-06-01GB-90-21.indd" "1000-04-01GB-01-05.indd" "1000-04-01GB-02-03.indd" "1000-04-01GB-03-06.indd" "1000-04-01GB-04-03.indd" "1000-04-01GB-11-02.indd" "1000-06-01GB-01-05.indd" "1000-06-01GB-02-05.indd" "1000-06-01GB-04-11.indd" "1000-06-01GB-08-09.indd" "1000-06-01GB-09-01.indd" "1000-06-01GB-10-07.indd" "1000-06-01GB-11-01.indd" ----------------------- "Pasted Path" 1000-06-01GB-12-03.indd "0000-00-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-00-01GB-01-03.indd" "0000-00-01GB-10-03.indd" "0000-00-01GB-11-11.indd" "0000-04-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-06-01GB-00-01.indd" "0000-06-01GB-70-04.indd" "0000-06-01GB-90-21.indd" "1000-04-01GB-01-05.indd" "

Maybe your software behaves different on Win7 than on WinXP. Hello. In any software when opening or for example adding files i can select multiple files by using alt.

You are right, this isn't a Windows 7 Issue. The software I am using is Adobe Indesign, but I wrongly assumed that the browse dialog was a Windows standard component. Thanks for your time and answear. Best regards
