I tried that but still got some errors that I don't understand:
doing exactly the same i got this:
[image: Inline image 1]
and if I switch the order I get this: [image: Inline image 2]
The second one gots closer to the goal, but why do I get "symbol" instead of the filename(which arrives correctly as you can see)?
Thanx!

In reality now I'm facing some trouble composing the whole file path by concatenating the message I got from [getdir] and the file name via osc, I've tried [glue] and [pack s s] and I get errors on data types and stuff like that (I'm away from computer now so I cannot prompt out) any suggestions??
you need to construct a symbol (absolute filename) from a two element list (filename, absolutedirname). [pack] and [glue] (the latter being deprecated in favour of [list append]) and the entire [list] family of objects will help you to create "list"s of "atoms" (aka elements, which can be either symbols or numbers). but they will not help you to create a single symbol out of that list. the simplest way to do that is by using dollarg-expansion in a messagebox.
e.g.
filename | absolute_directory_name | | [pack s s] | | ("list filename absolute_directory_name") | [open $2/$1( | | ("open absolute_directory_name/**filename")
