Folder Selection v1.00
This download shows how a user can select a folder in Navision.

The code does NOT rely on external applications (automation/ocx).

Yes, it works and it's great for people who don't want to use external tools
two disadvantages: it will cost you an extra form and it doesn't have the standard windows look and feel (folder tree, graphics, etc.)
Anyway, nice job...

I agree. Nice job but users want the Windows thingy.

I saw the rating was very low, with this I don't agree. This is a nice piece of work and should be rated higher than just one star....

One little improvment.

If I choose CD ROM drive with no disk in it, then Form left blank and further actions is not possible. So I add some code in function NavigateTo:

---

NavigateTo(partxtFolder : Text[1024])
//ST - add local variabel locOldPath::Text(1024)

IF COPYSTR(partxtFolder, STRLEN(partxtFolder), 1) <> '\' THEN
partxtFolder := partxtFolder + '\';

locOldPath := Path; //>>ST - remember old path in case drive is not ready

SETRANGE(Path, partxtFolder);

IF FIND('-') THEN //>>ST - test if find anything - added line
CurrForm.UPDATE(FALSE)
ELSE //>>ST - if drive is not ready
SETRANGE(Path, locOldPath); //>>ST - then restore old path

---

Nice job.

Great tool - I added the code for the cd drive as above, and changed it to look / feel a little more Navision Standard but the basics are GREAT.

It doesn't look like a tree but that is OK as in my case it will be used very rarely and this wil keep me from using automatiion.

Thanks!!
