Apr 22, 2020 Is there any trick to get Filename field in the Open file dialog filled with a default filename when called with a Getopenfilename statement? Default filename for getopenfilename. Is there any trick to get Filename field in the Open file dialog filled with a default filename when called with a Getopenfilename statement? Thanks, Stefi.
-->Sets or returns a String representing the path or file name that is initially displayed in a file dialog box. Free serials cracks and keygens. Read/write.
expression.InitialFileName
expression A variable that represents a FileDialog object.
You can use the *
and ?
wildcard characters when specifying the file name but not when specifying the path. The *
symbol represents any number of consecutive characters, and the ?
represents a single character. For example, .InitialFileName = 'c:c*s.txt' returns both 'charts.txt' and 'checkregister.txt.'
If you specify a path and no file name, all files that are allowed by the file filter appear in the dialog box.
If you specify a file that exists in the initial folder, only that file appears in the dialog box.
If you specify a file name that does not exist in the initial folder, the dialog box contains no files. The type of file that you specify in the InitialFileName property overrides the file filter settings.
If you specify an invalid path, the last-used path is used. A message warns users when an invalid path is used.
Setting this property to a string longer than 256 characters causes a run-time error.
The following example displays a File Picker dialog box by using the FileDialog object, and displays each selected file in a message box.
