darenkov Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Hi, I am a vb.net newbie and have been asked by my boss to create a small app that will allow him to select a file and have it copied to a different location. I am not sure which common dialog to use?! I notice there is one for opening files but I don't want to actually open the file, I just want to allow him to select it and press "OK", and then to select a different location where he wants to move it to. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I perhaps be using a treeview control instead? cheers Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted July 9, 2005 *Experts* Posted July 9, 2005 You don't have to open the file when using the Open File Dialog. The dialog simply returns a filename, it is completely up to you to decide what to do with the file path. Quote
