Working with Files
Many applications read from and/or write to files. Some create files that have their own special formats. Often this process starts with the user’s selecting a file with the Open File dialog box or saving a file with the Save As dialog box. Real Studio makes it easy to use the Open and Save dialog boxes, as well as to read from and write to many different types of files.
| NOTE: Example projects are provided in the Examples folder next to your Real Studio application: Files, FolderItem, FolderItem Dialogs. |
