--> cancel buttons appear to have the same effect as the ok buttons Wink

that is a "side" effect from --> Persistent file dialogues

because the Dialog1.FileName has now allready a value in.

i will have a look tomorrow, how to get the value out witch button was pressed.

VB and the development of wizards / file open/save dialog box in Win7 64bit

« on: February 05, 2018, 11:59:45 AM »

after spending o couple of hour's to get a file open/save Dialog working on win7 64bit,
i post the code here in case somebody else is searching for the same Problem

Code: [Select]


Dim Filename As String
Dim Dialog1

    Set Dialog1 = CreateObject("MSComDlg.CommonDialog")
    Dialog1.MaxFileSize = 256
    Dialog1.Filter = "GCode Files (*.tap)|*.tap"
    Dialog1.FilterIndex = 1
    Dialog1.DialogTitle = "select GCode file"
    Dialog1.InitDir = "C:\Mach3\GCode"
    Dialog1.FileName = ""
    save = false
    If save = true Then
        Dialog1.DefaultExt = def
        Dialog1.Flags = &H800 + &H4
        discard = Dialog1.ShowSave()
    Else
        Dialog1.Flags = &H1000 + &H4 + &H800
        discard = Dialog1.ShowOpen()
    End If

FileName = Dialog1.FileName



change the variable "save", to get either a open or save Dialog

if the code causes a error run this code

Code: [Select]

'Make the MSComDlg.CommonDialog class available for use. Required for filedialog function.
function registerComDlg
    Set objRegistry = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:StdRegProv")
    objRegistry.CreateKey &H80000001, "Software\CLASSES\Licenses\4D553650-6ABE-11cf-8ADB-00AA00C00905"
    objRegistry.SetStringValue &H80000001, "Software\CLASSES\Licenses\4D553650-6ABE-11cf-8ADB-00AA00C00905", "", "gfjmrfkfifkmkfffrlmmgmhmnlulkmfmqkqj"
end function


in vb scripter window once to registrate MSComDlg.CommonDialog on your System

if this code is causing error's please run this code once in VB scripter window to Register MSComDlg.CommonDialog :

Code: [Select]

   Set objRegistry = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\default:StdRegProv")
    objRegistry.CreateKey &H80000001, "Software\CLASSES\Licenses\4D553650-6ABE-11cf-8ADB-00AA00C00905"
