View 5 RepliesWhen I select multiple paths from openFileDialog in my listBox control enter only one path by try. This is probably because that I use OpenFileDialog.FileName. I wish to load all selected files in one time...but in this case Add(OpenFileDialog.FileNames) give me the value stringArray in same listBox. I suppose that maybe exict peace of code through ItemCollection which give me opportunity that I import all file path in one try in listBox control. It was interesting because how I may implementing matrix between openFileDialog and listBox..

I am trying to select a folder in a very similar way that we do using "OpenFileDialog". I searched for different sites and did find something but all of codes were tweaking "OpenFileDialog" and selected files..... I have seen applications where the select dialog box does NOT show the "File Type" as well as the "Open" button has "Select" name on it. Any idea how to get such dialogbox?
View 8 RepliesI currently know how to click a button on the application and when I click it, it invokes the OpenFileDialog Event or Object. After It Opens the Open File Dialog, I am able to select only ONE file from a location on my computer. After I click that Single File on my computer, I press the Okay or Open Button on the Open File Dialog, and then it adds that items to my list Box, knows as PlayList_00 and PlayList_01.
Here's what I got so far.
Private Sub addBTN_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles addBTN.Click
OFD.InitialDirectory = "C:Movies"
OFD.ShowDialog()
PlayList_00.Items.Add(OFD.FileName)

'I have built a Movie Play List, for my Windows Media Player.'But Selecting One item at a time is just fine, but I would really 'enjoy being able to select more than one item at a time, and then 'adding them to my ListBox(s).
I've spent FAR too long trying to troubleshoot this simple operation.I want the user to select multiple files in an OpenFileDialog (called OpenFileDialog1), click OK, and then have the filenames display in a listbox (called ListBox1). When I run, the openFile dialog allows the user to select mutliple files. However, on clicking OK, the dialog repons allowing the user to select only a SINGLE file. Then, it throws an "outside of array" exception.

I am trying to open a .csv file via openfiledialog and then display information on a datagridview...What would be some ways to approach this? I have tried reading the file, separating the values by commas and placing them in a string followed by placing the string into a list. I place them in a list because I have more than one string of text I want operated in the CSV file. How can I display each string of separated values onto my datagridview?
View 4 RepliesI found somethings and modified a bit the code so its can fit with what i needed.
I got it to work. Its read the text file but not i would like it to read.
In the ListBox, the text show up in 1 line as it should show in multi-line... (Yes, in the .txt file the text is in separated line.)[code]...
I would like to open 2 and more files(txt format) through openfiledialog and display all content in richtextbox.

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 am having a funny problem with OpenFileDialog that I just cannot solve. Using VB.NET 2008 Pro.
Problem: I run my program and click the menu item associated with this OFD and the OFD opens fine. When I select a file and click OPEN the dialog disappears then reappears. I click OPEN again and it disposes itself then loads the proper file into a form. The same thing happens with the CANCEL button as well.
Question: How do I go about coding the OFD to open a file that has been double clicked on thus bypassing dialogresult.OK . I can't seem to find an answer to this.
I am wanting to find out how to use the Win32 hooks to allow me to add extra save locations to the save and open dialog box so as to allow as an option for files to be saved directly to a database rather than a file system.I have tried looking online but can't find anything remotely usable for this, the only data on hooks that I can find involves Window operation hooks, mouse, leyboard, and shell hooks, nothing to do with files.

But I am stumped on what to do, can I set a variable for each new entry which contains the image?
