I've tried getting a file with tkFileDialog.askopenfile. ******************************************** import tkFileDialog file = tkFileDialog.askopenfile() print file ******************************************** It prints the opened files stuff, but I just can not find how to get that path as a string. I've searched around google and the present group, and found no documentation on the file class used with tkFileDialog. Does someone have a solution for that?
