Title:
Using GetDir() in a net environment
Hi all
I came into this problem :
In a setup program to be launched when the application is installed, I need to define which is the Server Path but this path must be a net path. What I do is something like this :
zServerPath = "\\"+Addbs(Alltrim(Left(Sys(0),At('#',Sys(0))-1)))+Left(Sys(5),1)+Sys(2003)
if directory(zserverpath)
* I have no problem, as the actual path can be reached through the net
else
* Probably the actual path is not shared or it is shared with another name
* at this point I launch a messagebox asking the user to check if the path is shared and then to pick the net path
zserverpath = getdir()
* As what i want to obtain is a net path i will check if left(zserverpath,2) == '\\'
endif
what I want to do is to open the getdir dialog box showing the network devices instead of the local one
Thanks
Alessio
