How would i open a files path without using the file dialog or api calls? How would i open the file in the code below and input its path into a string without the dialog?
#main.txtbox, "!contents? all$"
open "users.txt" for output as #1
print #1, all$
close #1

Its just a string so simply use the string in place of the literal "users.txt"
nomainwin
textbox #t.txt, 20, 20, 260, 25
button #t.default, "Open file", [respond], UL, 20, 50,260,25
WindowWidth = 350 : WindowHeight = 190
open "Get file name" for dialog as #t
#t "trapclose [quit]"
'clear the textbox and set the focus on it
'optionally you can pre fill it
'\bmp\ a relative path
'c:\basic\ a hard path
'or no path at all and it will use the current directory
'this will be whatever DefaultDir$ contains
#t.txt "c:\basic\file.bas"
#t.txt "!setfocus"
wait
[respond]
'get the contents once enter or the button has been clicked
#t.txt "!contents? pathfilename$"
notice "We are going to open "+pathfilename$
'open pathfilename$ for output as #1
wait
[quit]
close #t
end
