Thanks. My code was using 

        filew = gtk_file_selection_new ("Open File");

which works fine for regular files. There appears to be a difference between
file selection and file_chooser widgets that escapes me. In any case, I get the following warning from the 
line:

        gtk_file_chooser_set_action (GTK_FILE_SELECTION (filew),
                                                                                                              
           GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SELECT_FOLDER |
                                                                                                              
           GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER);

=>

(bspc:5768): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_set_action: assertion `GTK_IS_FILE_CHOOSER (chooser)' failed

Why then are there two widgets that do (almost) the same thing? Or what am I missing here?

Thanks
Peter
