triggering events when the "open" button in the "open" dialog window is clicked

I'd like to trigger something automatically once the user clicks the "open" button in the standard dialog box that pops up when you send a "read" message to the [seq ] object. Any ideas?

Use opendialog instead:

Cool. Never occurred to me to use [opendialog] in a situation where the object already opens up a dialog window with the correct message(s). Nice to get a quick and simple answer. ;-)

Thanks!
