How would I do that? Sample code is below that demonstrated that the file I opened contained the full path and file name.
I want to extract just the path and serialize that to the user.config file as a UserSetting value. Then next time the user opens the dialog box, it uses that saved path string to go immediately to the location previously used.
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
Properties.Settings.Default.persistConnectionType = openFileDialog1.FileName
Properties.Settings.Default.Save();

I set up an Openfiledialog and put in an initial filename value (the last filename the user opened).However, when the dialog shows up, it is as if the filename has been scrolled off to the left.I only see about the last 10 characters of the name, even though the filename field is big enough to show the whole name.It is also selected, which is ok - it means if the user types a name the value will replace what I've put there, which is reasonable behavior.How do I control this 'scrolling'?I call it scrolling even though there is no scroll bar.If I click in the field and use the left arrow key I can back up to the beginning of the filename - the filename gradually shifts into view about 10 characters at a time, until I reach its beginning, at which time I see the entire filename in the filename field which is how I'd like to have things when the opendialog opens.

I'm using windows 7 (if that even makes a difference).
I'm using this code and the dialog is still showing all files.
vb.net
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Word Documents (*.doc)|*.doc"
Is it different for the 4.0 framework?

Quick query...I'm trying to scan a long string and return any values that occur between the tags <FileName> and </FileName> I've got a bit of code here to use regular expressions to return the position of the occurunces of both substrings..Just wanted to find out if there is any way to scan for both substrings within one loop (as im currently doing 2, one for the first substring and one for the 2nd) so I can use something along these lines:
ringlist = Mid(XMLRESP, (startloc + 1), (endloc - 1))
MsgBox(ringlist)
to msg box the value between the substrings...either that or another approach to return the value between the 2 substrings (it can be of variable length)
Dim patternstart As String = "<FileName>"
Dim patternend As String = "</FileName>"
Dim matchesstart As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(XMLRESP, patternstart)

I have a Listview on my form with different files. I can selet a file en open it with the proces start method. To open the file i use the OpenFileDialog method and select the filename. This work very good. With the code below.
My question is if there is a method to get the selected file without using the OpenFileDialog Box. So when i dubbelclick the selected file the proces will start with open the selected file. Something like:
proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.SelectedCell.FileName
instead of proc.StartInfo.FileName = Me.OpenFileDialog1.FileName
PS) May be i can preduce the Filename using the OpenFileDialog method on the background.
Private Sub ListView1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseDoubleClick
If Me.OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then

I have an application that requires data be entered, and after entering, a button is clicked to process that data. Clicking the button works just as it should--the data is processed properly. In constructing a test module, I provide a set of data values, followed by:
btnWhatever.PerformClick()
Nothing happens. I have used this syntax for years, and it has always worked flawlessly. I have triple checked everything else and isolated the problem to the failure of the PerformClick(). The PerformClick() is in a test subroutine that does nothing but fill textboxes and labels with default data, then calls the PerformClick() on the button to begin processing. Again, the button works fine, the data is entered as it should be, but the PerformClick() does not fire the click event.

I'm trying to figure out how to get the file name of the application at run time, in case it gets renamed.Also, as a easter-egg. First post, I don't know what code to put but this is how I am so far, the {FN} is where I need the file name.
If({FN} = "easter.exe") Then
msgbox("You found a easteregg! :O")

I often use things like the crosshatch in filenames to group them together. Until recently this has not been a problem.
I am working modifing a WPF app which uses a Listbox to store images. I need the full path of the image to feed to a class to retrieve metadata.
The test image is named "# Canon-ixus.jpg".
Using Listbox.SelectedValue to return the filename I get "%23 Canon-ixus.jpg". There are not a whole lot of options to returning the name of the selected item from the Listbox.
Is there any simple way to get the name back to its original form?

My users need to browse to select a file and then save it to a different location. Here's my code I've got so far - it incorporates the OpenFileDialog to open the file and the SaveFileDialog to save the file. When the code goes into the OpenFileDialog portion, it works great....the initial directory is set to "C:" This is where the user will select the file they want to save to another location.

This is my first post on dreamInCode, Is it possible to browse and select a file on a server share, but I need it to return the UNC path. e.g. if I select F:\sharename\filename.txt, it will work out the share path on the PC and show the actual Path.\\servername\sharegroupName\sharename\filename.txt
The reason for this is that some users have different share drive letters.

ok, So I can call on the open file Dialog so it can be used. The problem comes when I want to put it to actual use. The idea is that the user pics an image from there "directory" and then it displays in an image box (which is already there) so, how would I use the open file dialog to locate the image and then display it in the image box?
