 |
|
Someone wrote the PickFolder function which allows the user to select a directory from a nice tree dialog. The code is as follows (note the cFolder argument):
| Code: |
Function PickFolder( cFolder )
oFolderPickerDlg = createUnoService( "com.sun.star.ui.dialogs.FolderPicker" )
If Len( cFolder ) > 0 Then
oFolderPickerDlg.setDisplayDirectory( ConvertToURL( cFolder ) )
EndIf
oFolderPickerDlg.execute()
cPickedFolder = oFolderPickerDlg.getDirectory()
PickFolder = ConvertFromURL( cPickedFolder )
End Function
|
Here is how I use the function:
| Code: |
Sub SpecifyServerPath
cFolder = PickFolder( "K:\" )
End Sub
|
I can not get it to start from a directory of my choosing. Even though I pass "K:\", it always starts from "My Computer". What am I missing? |

wfm.
Your "K:\" is a network drive? connected? Maybe, try a "k:\" (small) or supply the UNC?
Sorry, I'm not running windows
