 |
|
Greetings!
Yes, it's me, the Windows newbie.  I am trying to pick up a working folder and I am able to do this, but I would like the starting place to be set. I am using selectedPath() to set the starting spot, but it is not working. Here is the code...
| Code: |
char[] askForWorkDir()
{
FolderBrowserDialog wf;
wf = new FolderBrowserDialog();
char[] desc = "Choose the working folder for this task...";
wf.description(desc);
//wf.selectedPath(wDir.text);
if (wDir.text != "")
wf.selectedPath(wDir.text);
if(DialogResult.OK != wf.showDialog())
return "";
//msgBox(wf.selectedPath());
return wf.selectedPath();
}
|
Is this correct?
thanks,
jic |

It wasn't supported, but now it is. Just set the selectedPath as you are doing; setting it to an empty string is fine, however. I also just wrote an example called dirlist that uses a FolderBrowserDialog and displays the directory listing in a TreeView.
