Flex FileReference: Open Dialog at a default location

Question

How can I set FileRefernce to open browse at a default location? If the default location is at C:/test then I always want to open browse from C:/test.

I didn't think this was possible; it is operating system specific. I retagged this post; as this has nothing to do w/ Flex or Flash Builder. — JeffryHouser

in pure AS3.0, no way, because that's not possible due to Flash Security Sandbox.

but, if you are using a Air File Class. it's possible.

in Adobe Forum, same issue question here: FileReference set directory?

File_Class Adobe Documents

File.applicationStorageDirectory—a storage directory unique to each installed AIR application

File.applicationDirectory—the read-only directory where the application is installed (along with any installed assets)

File.desktopDirectory—the user's desktop directory

File.documentsDirectory—the user's documents directory

File.userDirectory—the user directory
