File Selector Style - Allow Directory Change

[Sarah]

Is there any way of preventing the User from changing the directory you specify?

You could use the Tree structure object and use this to navigate the areas you only want them to go. If the folder structure is fixed you could create your own save box.

It is possible. A hacky way of doing it using MFC is here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dialog/customize_dialog.aspx

However, I don't think MMF can do it.

Thanks guys. Hmmm. Quite a bit of work then. That MFC stuff was exactly what I'm after, but getting it into MMF is another matter!

I made a simple savee function in my old minisynth 2 app on my site. Is that what you are trying to do Sarah?

You can also do it with the explorer object by turning off the folder side and providing a button that allows the UP one dir. function to take place. When the user gets to the top level directory that you want you can disable your UP one dir. button. Works great for me and does not take much time to program.

The explorer object gives a nice look to it. I'll have a play with that and a subapp and see how it goes. Thanks
