Add this line:
[openDlg setPrompt:@"Select"];
Solution 2
Thanks a lot for the question and answers. I have replaced deprecated methods and it seems to work fine. Sorry not yet sure about editing other people answers (new to contributing here).
- (IBAction)sendFileButtonAction:(id)sender{
NSOpenPanel* openDlg = [NSOpenPanel openPanel];
// Enable the selection of files in the dialog.
[openDlg setCanChooseFiles:YES];
// Enable the selection of directories in the dialog.
[openDlg setCanChooseDirectories:YES];
// Change "Open" dialog button to "Select"
[openDlg setPrompt:@"Select"];
// Display the dialog. If the OK button was pressed,
// process the files.
if ( [openDlg runModal] == NSModalResponseOK )
{
// Get an array containing the full filenames of all
// files and directories selected.
NSArray* files = [openDlg URLs];
// Loop through all the files and process them.
for( int i = 0; i < [files count]; i++ )
{
NSString* fileName = [files objectAtIndex:i];
NSLog(@"file: %@", fileName);
// Do something with the filename.
}
}
}

In my Application i need to show the select file dialog, I am making use of the NSOpenPanel which allows to select the file, code is as shown below,
- (IBAction)sendFileButtonAction:(id)sender{ NSOpenPanel* openDlg = [NSOpenPanel openPanel]; // Enable the selection of files in the dialog. [openDlg setCanChooseFiles:YES]; // Enable the selection of directories in the dialog. [openDlg setCanChooseDirectories:YES]; // Display the dialog. If the OK button was pressed, // process the files. if ( [openDlg runModalForDirectory:nil file:nil] == NSOKButton ) { // Get an array containing the full filenames of all // files and directories selected. NSArray* files = [openDlg filenames]; // Loop through all the files and process them. for( int i = 0; i < [files count]; i++ ) { NSString* fileName = [files objectAtIndex:i]; [self log:fileName]; // Do something with the filename. } } }
everything works perfect, but i am facing only one issue, while opening the file, it shows the Open and Cancel button, Is there any way to rename the open button to “Select” button, or do i need to use some other Cocoa Resource.

Admin over 12 yearsIs there a way to have the filename you select diplay onto a label? Or a way to Actually select the file and store it in the application to access it later? Thanks!!

Amitg2k12 almost 12 yearsI suppose yes, in the framework you would get callback, delegate for the selected file name and that you could use to display it over the label
