[SOLVED] TOpenDialog and files containing single quotes

[oneeyed]

Hello,

I have a problem with the TOpenDialog on windows.
I am using the latest Lazarus (1.2.4).

When using

Code: [Select]

For I:= 0 to (OpenDialog1.Files.Count-1) do
    begin
    if not FileExists(OpendDialog1.FilesDialog.Files[I]) then ShowMessage(OpendDialog1.FilesDialog.Files[I]+' doesn''t exist.');
    end;

FileExists returns false when the file does exist but contains a single quote : '

Try with FileExistsUTF8 from lazutf8 http://wiki.freepascal.org/LCL_Unicode_Support

Does the filename (Files

• ) returned by TOpenDialog actually contain the single quote?

Thanks beigeno, FileExistsUTF8 does work. I should have expected that it was a unicode problem in my code.
