Ok
here's a question
how do i link a drivelistbox to a dirlistbox, like when you select your drive in the drivelistbox you get the folders from that drive in the dirlistbox
and how do i select the path of a single file in the filelistbox?
in the dirlistbox you can select a folder with .path, but how do you do it with a filelistbox? |

Dir1.Path = Drive1.Drive

I'm not quite sure what you're asking for, but File1.Path is the directory that the filelistbox is "looking in".
Here's some quick code that may help you put this all together (which is what I think you're getting at.
| Code: | Private Sub Drive1_Change()
Dir1.Path = Drive1.Drive
End Sub
Private Sub Dir1_Change()
File1.Path = Dir1.Path
End Sub
Private Sub File1_Click()
Dim SelectedFile As string
SelectedFile = File1.Path
If Right(SelectedFile, 1) <> "\" Then
SelectedFile = SelectedFile & "\"
End If
SelectedFile = SelectedFile & File1.FileName
MsgBox "The file you chose is:" & vbCrLf & SelectedFile
End Sub |
Create a new project, drop in the three controls, add the code, and run the program. 'Tis truly as simple as that. |
