How to choose directory of files to analyze

I am writing a macro to analyze all images in a directory and subdirectory. I would like the user be able to choose the directory by browsing and not by typing the full path. I tried IpWsGetName, but it works only for files not for directory. How is it possible to do that with IpBasic ?

Try the following:

Function GetDirectory() As String
	Dim dirName As String, destName As String
	Dim demarkation As Integer
	
	GetDirectory = ""
	dirName = GetFilePath("Destination folder", "", "C:\", "Go to the desired folder", 3)

	If dirName = "" Then
		Exit Sub
	End If

	demarkation = InStrRev(dirName, "\")
	destName = Left(dirName, demarkation)
	GetDirectory = destName
	
End Function

You can customize this some more by passing in a starting directory and a prompt, as desired.

Hi Carlos,

Multi-image processing can be done using batch macro (Batch_Process.ipm), you can find that macro in the Scripts folder.

There are some posts on this forum related to batch processing, you can search for it using "batch" key word.
