.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm General / February 2007OpenFileDialog doens't remember the user's settings
When programming in access I can make this call dialogResult = Application.OpenFileDialog.Show() ' May not be the exactly correct syntax The user can manipulate the column sizes the sorting,etc. When I call that that code again, the OpenFileDialog remembers the listing type and the sort that the user selected. When I do the same thing in .NET 2.0 using the Windows.Form.OpenFileDialog object, it doens't remember the listing type and the sort that the user selected. And I doing something wrong or missing something? >When programming in access I can make this call > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > >And I doing something wrong or missing something? I don't think the 2.0 OpenFileDialog has the same behavior as the one in Access. What I would do if I wanted the behavior you see in the access dialog is save the settings to the application settings(if they are even available in the OpenFileDialog). I don't know if they are, so you will need to check that out. Search for OpenFileDialog in the documentation to determine what settings are available to you. I know the file type is available. Good luck with your project, Otis Mukinfus http://www.otismukinfus.com http://www.arltex.com http://www.tomchilders.com http://www.n5ge.com Dialog components presented in our Dialog Workshop .NET product allow you to set initial file list view style programmatically. So, you can save it each time your dialog closes and reset it back when dialog opens. Hope it helps.
