FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows
Progress 9.x
SYMPTOM(s):
The file extension selected by the user in the SAVE-AS system dialog is not appended to the file name as expected.
Running code similar to:

SYSTEM-DIALOG GET-FILE cFileName
TITLE "Choose Procedure to Run ..."
FILTERS "Source Files (*.p)" "*.p", "R-code Files (*.r)" "*.r"
SAVE-AS.
MESSAGE cFileName VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
CAUSE:
The DEFAULT-EXTENSION option is missing from the SYSTEM-DIALOG GET-FILE statement.
FIX:
Add the DEFAULT-EXTENSION "" option to the SYSTEM-DIALOG GET-FILE statement:
DEFINE VARIABLE cFileName AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO.
SYSTEM-DIALOG GET-FILE cFileName
TITLE "Choose Procedure to Run ..."
FILTERS "Source Files (*.p)" "*.p", "R-code Files (*.r)" "*.r"
SAVE-AS
DEFAULT-EXTENSION "".
MESSAGE cFileName VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
