MFI from a selectable location

BenBaecker — Tue, 17 Oct 2023 04:55:27 GMT

Hi, I'm quite new to the JSL world, or coding in general. With a few simple scripts I would like to spare some recurring work. As in this case, I would like to automate the MFI. To do this, I copied the script below from the MFI dialog and expanded it to include the "Pick Directory" command. My only problem is that the "Select a directory" dialog appears twice every time. After I have selected the storage location 2x, the rest of the script and also the following commands after the MFI works without problems.

Multiple File Import(
	<<Set Folder( Pick Directory( "Select a directory.", "$Desktop" ) ),
	<<Set Subfolders( 0 ),
	<<Set Name Filter( "*.meas9206;" ),
	<<Set Name Enable( 1 ),
	<<Set Size Enable( 0 ),
	<<Set Date Enable( 0 ),
	<<Set Add File Name Column( 1 ),
	<<Set Add File Size Column( 0 ),
	<<Set Add File Date Column( 0 ),
	<<Set Import Mode( "CSVData" ),
	<<Set Charset( "Vermutete Codierung" ),
	<<Set Stack Mode( "Stack Similar" ),
	<<Set CSV Has Headers( 0 ),
	<<Set CSV Allow Numeric( 1 ),
	<<Set CSV First Header Line( 1 ),
	<<Set CSV Number Of Header Lines( 1 ),
	<<Set CSV First Data Line( 25 ),
	<<Set CSV EOF Other( ";" ), 

) << Import Data;

It might be enough if you move Pick Directory() outside << Set Folder

Names Default To Here(1);

sel_dir = Pick Directory("Select a directory.", "$Desktop");
Multiple File Import(
	<<Set Folder(sel_dir),
	<<Set Subfolders(0),
	<<Set Name Filter("*.meas9206;"),
	<<Set Name Enable(1),
	<<Set Size Enable(0),
	<<Set Date Enable(0),
	<<Set Add File Name Column(1),
	<<Set Add File Size Column(0),
	<<Set Add File Date Column(0),
	<<Set Import Mode("CSVData"),
	<<Set Charset("Vermutete Codierung"),
	<<Set Stack Mode("Stack Similar"),
	<<Set CSV Has Headers(0),
	<<Set CSV Allow Numeric(1),
	<<Set CSV First Header Line(1),
	<<Set CSV Number Of Header Lines(1),
	<<Set CSV First Data Line(25),
	<<Set CSV EOF Other(";"), 

) << Import Data;
