PdcApplication.SaveECIFileDialog

Declaration

SaveECIFileDialog(FileMask As String, FileName As String, InitialDirectory As String) as String

Description

Open a file browser dialog via Bemet to select a location and filename to save as. This will return the full path of the selected file as a 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.
FileName: The pre-entered filename to save as. This can still be changed by the user in the dialog.
InitialDirectory : 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.

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.SaveECIFileDialog(tbFileMask.Text, tbFileName.Text, "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\")

Availability

Available since september 2023. Bemet 2023R4 and higher.
