Lol - okay so I know how the Checklist and file commands can help you read and write to files in directories as well as just open them in general - But I've created a checklist from my music directory and have outputted the file names to a string randomly... and them I assign the shjkhk\dghjkga\music\ prior to the actual string... I've printed the string to the screen and it is correct, but the music will not load. If I copy the string from the screen and put it in directly, the music loads... but not when adding
It's not in any loop and is called when the program starts... any ideas why it wont load?

Do you actually have a Play Music command in your code?

Is the Dir1 folder inside your project directory and contains the Dir2 folder (and the rest)?

That path format is a relative path format and will fail if Dir1 (and the rest of the path) isn't in the project folder.

A hard-coded path would also include the drive letter, but that method isn't recommended either.

Finally, please use the Edit button in future to avoid multiple posts.
