FileList Box

[vbfingers]

To all Wizards, I solicit your wisdom,

When you have a subst'd drive And you are using the following VB dialog boxes for the following:
Drive Box, Directory Box, File Box, - I onlying get information in the first two boxes. But when I use a NON subst'd drive, say the "C:\" harddrive - I also get filename information in the file list box - but if it is a subst'd drive, my file list box is empty! but I know that there is many files there! Can any one help out with a work around.

VBFingers.

I was unable to replicate your problem, are you sure you are using the Drive/Dir and File Lists Correctly?

private Sub Dir1_Change()
File1 = Dir1
End Sub

private Sub Drive1_Change()
Dir1 = Drive1
End Sub

Sometimes the Drive letter for Mapped Drives ( that's what your subst'd drive means, i guess?) also includes the server/machine name and the Folder like
F: [//server/path]

So just take the first 2 chars: Left$(Drive1.Drive,2) or Look for ":" and take the left portion or USe api to get the drive letter "GetDrives" or some such call.. i dont recollect ofhand
