Re: Automatically save the file to folder

Here is a simple script that does what you want

names default to here( 1 );
// Pick the file to open
myPath = Pick File("tdisplayed text string", "path to initial folder");
dt = open(myPath);
dt << save("path to work directory.jmp);

Details on Pick File, Open and Save functions are found in the Scripting Index:
