Both of those were very helpful . Interestingly, I was expecting a file path but I got the actual file so that makes it a bit easier. Great group. I will enjoy being here. Thanks to Torsten and Noury David Totally Objects

Hi David,
welcome! Just check
UIManager default chooseExistingFileReference: 'Select the XML file' extensions: #('xml' 'xmi') path: ''.
and similar methods. Be aware that a return value of nil means that dialog was canceled.
Thanks Torsten

I am moving to Pharo from VisualAge Smalltalk as I am now using an M1 MacBook.
I am building software to manage our home accounts and to do this, I download each day a text file from my bank that contains about 1 monthâs worth of transactions. In VAST, I use a FileSelector that opens a window and enables my to navigate to the Downloads folder and lets me select the current transaction file. This gives me the path to the file making it simple for me to open and parse it.
Is there a similar file selector window that I can use in Pharo? I can see how to open the Glamour browsers but not how to extract the path.
Can anyone help please?
