View 2 RepliesI am writing an application that will use a OpenFileDialog control that will read a text file into memory and later process it.
I do have the following filter: Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|CSV files (*.csv)|*.csv|Spaced Text files (*.prn)|*.prn|All files (*.*)|*.*"
When I navigate to my test folder that contains a single .txt file, I see that file. When I change the filter to *.cvs that files goes disappears because it has a .txt extension. That is good. But when I select All files *.* it does not re appear? Why and how do I make it appear.
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.

View 2 RepliesI want to search the text in my multiline textbox with a vertical scrollbar:
mEvent.Focus()
mEvent.SelectionStart = InStr(mEvent.Text, FindString.Text) - 1
mEvent.SelectionLength = Len(FindString.Text)
This works fine, but if the found text is too far down, I have to manually scroll down to see it. How can I automatically scroll down so that the found text is visible in the text box?
I've been searching round Google for a soltuion for this problem for awhile now, though I have not yet found anything useful.I'm in the process in making a program that makes a list of all the computers on a network. All fo the values are saved in a Listview.
What I need is a way to selected something in the Listview, and it to be added to another value (for example, a textbox)I did find one solution, though this added this to every value "ListviewItem: [ITEM]" while instead of that, I just want the item.
I'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.
I need to get the path to a folder eg: "C:" . but when i use the below code i have to sellect a file (any type) to get the folder path

Lets consider a text file stored in
C:New FolderSample.txt

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.

View 4 RepliesI am using the open file dialog box. Right now the function looks like
Private Function OpenFileDialog1_FileOK(...)
File_Path_Name = OpenFileDialog1.Filename.ToString()
End Function
The thing is it isn't clear when this is called. I think it is called when I go through
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
I want to return a value that is the Filename path to a variable like
file_path = Function()
and not use a global variable. But it doesn't seem like this is possible. Do you know how to get the function OpenFileDialog to return the file path?
