How do I add Dialogues to my project?

[legion48]

I'm trying to learn B4a and would like to add some extra functionality to the Signature app tutorial but I'm getting getting absolutely nowhere. So far I've managed to add some buttons that when clicked change the colour of the ink but I'm stumped on adding a file dialogue so I can use "Save As". I can't even seem to add the Dialogue 2.7 libraries to my project.

The txt file says to "Move the jar and the xml file to your Additional Libraries folder." I don't have an Addition Libraries folder. I made one and put the 2 files in there but I still don't have the libs I need.

I can't even run the Dialogues Demo. I get this error:

Compiling code. Error
Error parsing program.
Error description: Unknown type: colordialog
Are you missing a library reference?
Occurred on line: 72
Dim cd As ColorDialog

Can anyone tell this very frustrated newbie what he's doing wrong?

Have a look at chapter 13.7 Libraries in the Beginner's Guide.

Best regards.

Thanks Klaus, that did it. I've actually printed out the beginners guide now, as I was struggling to use it effectively onscreen.
