Hi all,

When I call the **browse** function it stores the file as an object in my filereference instance. If I can **get** the **path** of the file it is ■■■■ easy, but the flash.net.fileReference class only gives the name / size etc, but not the file **path** when we call the **browse** function.

Is there a way to get the file path when we call the **browse** function?

Thanks  
Thil
