How do I change my code to get the file name instead of the directory name? openDialog.InitialFilename
gives me the directory name.
openDialog.FileName
gives me the error "Method or data member not found".
Private Sub btnEditPhoto_Click()
If (txtImageName > "") Then
Application.FollowHyperlink txtImageName
Else
Dim openDialog As Office.FileDialog
Set openDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
openDialog.Filters.Clear
openDialog.Filters.Add "JPEG Files", "*.jpg"
Dim pickedFile As Boolean
pickedFile = openDialog.Show
If pickedFile Then
txtImageName.SetFocus
txtImageName.Text = openDialog.InitialFileName
End If
End If
End Sub
You want:
OpenDialog.SelectedItems.Item(1)
In place of:
OpenDialog.InitialFileName
As you have not allowed multiselect.
So:
''Reference Microsoft Office x.x Object Library
Dim openDialog As Office.FileDialog
Set openDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
openDialog.Filters.Clear
openDialog.Filters.Add "JPEG Files", "*.jpg"
If openDialog.Show Then
''SelectedItems is not zero based
''Do not use .Text property in MS Access except
''in special cases, then you will not have to set focus
''txtImageName.SetFocus
txtImageName = openDialog.SelectedItems(1)
End If
If AllowMultiSelect is used, you need to iterate through SelectedItems
''Reference Microsoft Office x.x Object Library
Dim openDialog As Office.FileDialog
Dim i As Integer
Set openDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
'Use ctl or shift + click to select more than one file
openDialog.AllowMultiSelect = True
openDialog.Filters.Clear
openDialog.Filters.Add "JPEG Files", "*.jpg"
If openDialog.Show Then
For i = 1 To openDialog.SelectedItems.Count
Imagelst = Imagelst & ";" & openDialog.SelectedItems(i)
Next
End If
