Re: How to implement a MultiFileLoader?

Hm, obviously I've been mistaken ... the usual file dialog doesn't hide 
the form files, only the file node explorer view does.  :-/

However, this doesn't work currently, either, but should work if my 
MultiDataObject works. I'll try further ...

Kind regards
Peter
