Declaration

OpenECIFolderDialog(InitialDir As String) as String

Description

Open a file browser dialog via Bemet to select a folder. This will return the full path of the selected folder as a String. If this form is canceled without selecting a file, an empty string will be returned.

Parameters

InitialDir : the initial directory where the file browser is opened. If this is empty, or the directory cannot be found, it will open at the root level. If this parameter contains a local path, and Bemet is being run in the ECI cloud, the path will be translated to a tsclient path. Example: "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\" will be changed to "\\tsclient\C\Users\Admin\Documents\"

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

Dim Result As String = PDC.App.OpenECIFolderDialog("C:\Users\Admin\Documents\")

Availability
