Re: [MS_AccessPros] Using the OenFileDialog...

 

Art-

In your For Each varFile loop, do an insert to a "working" table that you've cleared out previously in your code with at DELETE *.  Then use that table as the Record Source for your continuous form.

I am using the OpenFileDialog to copy files around. Here is the code:

Private Sub cmdBrowse_Click()
  Dim fDialog As Office.FileDialog
   Dim varFile As Variant

   ' Clear listbox contents. '
   Me.FileList.RowSource = ""

   ' Set up the File Dialog. '
   Set fDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)

   With fDialog

      ' Allow user to make multiple selections in dialog box '
      .AllowMultiSelect = True

      ' Set the title of the dialog box. '
      .Title = "Please select one or more files"

      ' Clear out the current filters, and add our own.'
      .Filters.Clear
      .Filters.Add "Access Databases", "*.MDB"
      .Filters.Add "Access Projects", "*.ADP"
      .Filters.Add "All Files", "*.*"

      ' Show the dialog box. If the .Show method returns True, the '
      ' user picked at least one file. If the .Show method returns '
      ' False, the user clicked Cancel. '
      If .Show = True Then

         'Loop through each file selected and add it to our list box. '
         For Each varFile In .SelectedItems
            Me.FileList.AddItem varFile
         Next

      Else
         MsgBox "You clicked Cancel in the file dialog box."
      End If
   End With

End Sub

Right now I have the results going to a listbox called FileList. What I would like to do is throw the results into a continuous form so I can manipulate them the further. I need to be able to either copy the file to a specific location which is set prior to this code running or delete the file from the continuous list.

Any ideas?

Thank you ,
