Reading directory names
I am trying to get the foldername into a textbox of my gui by using the
FileDialog box. I have some problem to get it to work: Public Sub ReadDirectoryNames() Dim FileName As Variant Dim Filt As String, Title As String Dim Response As Integer ' Set Drive letter ChDrive "C:\" ' Set to Specified Path\Folder ChDir "C:\plot\" FilterIndex = 5 ' Set Dialogue Box Caption Title = "Kims file selector" ' Get FileName FileName = Application.FileDialog(Title:=Title) ' Exit if Dialogue box cancelled If FileName = False Then Response = MsgBox("No File was selected", vbOKOnly & vbCritical, "Selection Error") Exit Sub End If ' Display Full Path & File Name Response = MsgBox("You selected " & FileName, vbInformation, "Proceed") GUI.TextBoxDirectoryName.Text = FileName Call ReadText(FileName) GUI.TabbedPane.Pages(2).Visible = True End Sub |

Reading directory names
Try giving FileDialog a type rather than a Title.
