Im wondering why this doesn't work: It sets initialdirectory to directorypath and doesn't traverse into save folder. I've tried it all. Anyone have any ideas of how to get it to work? [Code]
View 4 RepliesI've got my program to run a set of code based between certain variables. The variables are:
RBM (Radiobutton for male gender)
RBF (Radiobutton for female gender)
Based on that, it runs a new sub which then does a select case based on ClassBox (Listbox) index.
Now here is what I don't get. When I run the code, it works flawlessly except on ONE of the case selects.
Here is what I've got for the codes:

If I select anything, it loads the correct directory. The error isn't the case selects, I put them in there in case I missed something. I ran debugger with breakpoints so I could see if the data was getting crossed wrong. When I select index 4 on the female sub it loads the correct directory and I set a breakpoint for "OFD1.InitialDirectory = Race" which Race showed the correct directory, but when the OFD1 came up, it's not the folder 91 (Index 4 in female), it goes to 80 (Index 7 in male) which isn't even a female option and it's not the same index in the male section either.

how to get directory value from openfiledialog
View 2 RepliesI'm revamping a program and am having a bit of trouble. See I was using StreamReader in my last program. The user had to type the path and file into a textbox to get the program to load the information it needed. So I wanted to change that and use a OpenFileDialog method.
I got the open file dialog method working but the 1st step before I go anywhere else with this program is getting the path to the file that was opened as it is needed to load images within the same folder.
Lets consider a text file stored in
C:New FolderSample.txt
Using openfiledialog box I will select Sample.txt, but how to select the path name, i.e.
C:New Folder

I'm sure this has been addressed in other threads, but I wasn't able to come across any using the search function.I'm using the OpenFileDialog feature to have the user select a file. However, I want to have a label display the path of the file only.I've been using the OpenFileDialog1. SafeFileName feature to save only the name of the file, but I haven't found one that will save the path, but not the file name.I considered splicing the path and file name, but with an unpredictable path length and unpredictable file extension type, I thought it would get messy.

I am working on an assignment, so need to pass the file to the instructor. I thought I remembered a way to input a placeholder character(s) that tells the computer that the path is flexible until the point where I declare the actual path.
For example: if the directory is C:documentsMyProjectinDebug on my machine, and is F:usersownerclass assignmentscis101StudentAMyProjectinDebug on the instructor's machine, can I put a "wildcard" type of character that points to the ...MyProjectinDebug file that will work on both machines in the Initial Directory property?
