GPIB/SCPI Browse File Path

$

Is there a way to browse the file path of an instrument connected via GPIB?  From my experience, only the file system on the local controlling machine is accessible in this manner.  I will have files saved within a folder on a PNA but the file name will have a variable characters in the name based upon the date and saved version -- so from an automated testing standpoint, I won't necessarily know the entire file name during execution.  If I could using a browse file command to locate and store the file name before running the code, the script would be more streamlined. 

 

An alternative method would be to search the known folder for the beginning of the file name string.  I know the List Folder function could do this for files stored locally, but again, this does not access the file system of the PNA controlled via GPIB.

 

Any suggestions would be helpful.  Thank you.
