Created page with "== Declaration == OpenECIFileDialog(Mask As String, AllowMulti As Boolean, InitialDir As String) as String == Description == Open a file browser dialog via Bemet to select a..."

New page

== Declaration ==
OpenECIFileDialog(Mask As String, AllowMulti As Boolean, InitialDir As String) as String

== Description ==
Open a file browser dialog via Bemet to select a file to upload. This will return the full path of the selected file as a String.
If multiple files are selected, then their paths will be returned as a commaseparated String. If this form is canceled without selecting a file, an empty string will be returned.

== Parameters ==
FileMask : A pattern that used to filter the files that are shown and can be selected. If this is empty the default '*.*' is used. If you want to only show pdf files, you can use *.pdf . <br>
AllowMulti : Allow the user to select multiple files
InitialDir : The initial directory shown in the dialog

== Notes ==
This method is available both in the EciCloud and in the on-prem version of Bemet. But in the on-prem version it will use the regular windows dialog, and in the Eci Cloud it will use our secure custom dialog.

== Code example ==
<source lang="vb">
Dim Result As String = PDC.App.OpenECIFileDialog(tbFileMask.Text, cbAllowMulti.Checked, "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\")
</source>

== Availability ==
Available since september 2023. Bemet 2023R4 and higher.
