Common Dialog Troubles

Is this possible....using the Shift or control key? Or do I need a different control...and if so..which one.

Thanks. :)

I know this is an old thread...but I was looking for the same answer...

I can select files...but when it returns with the path....it leaves off the file names. All I get is the folder path.

You'll need to use the cdlOFNAllowMultiselect flag to allow for multiple files to be selected.

The return will contain the filenames selected delimited by vbNullChars. The first item will contain the entire path for the files. Parse on vbNullChar with the Split function.

Here is my code for trying to read the filenames.


Dim temparray() As String, ttext As String
temparray() = Split(cdpath.filename, vbNullChars)
ttext = "Path = " & temparray(0) & vbCrLf
MsgBox UBound(temparray())
For i = 1 To UBound(temparray())
ttext = ttext & temparray(i) & vbCrLf
Next i
txtpath = ttext 'cdpath.filename
MsgBox ttext


but the array only has one item...the path...and the ubound is returned as 0.

Am I missing something?

It is vbNullChar, singular. Also, what flags are you using exactly?

cdpath.flags = cdlOFNAllowMultiselect Or cdlOFNExplorer

It's working now...it was the s Thanks a bunch. :)
