How to allow the user to choose a file while browsing his files ?

[mikonos]

Hey all,

Im trying to allow a user to save an attachment in a specific folder
he chooses. I would like him to choose the folder by browsing his
computer and NOT by typing the full path. How can i do that ?

Thanks.
Miko

See the thread

Initdir for input type="file"

I saw that thread, but im using VBScript
inside OUTLOOK. The syntax is a little
different and i did not manage to find
some good help on how to do that neither in
VBScript nor in OUTLOOK forms

Hi

Now that you've mentioned the additional information your question becomes clearer. Unfortunately I'm still far from the level of Certified Mind Reader. ;-)

So you say you're using VBScript ?inside? Outlook. Do you mean VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) or do you mean using Outlook as a server with it's COM objects and VBScript?

As far as I know you don't use VBScript within the Outlook application but VBA. If you're using Visual Basic forApplications or VBScript you can use the Common Dialog control (both) or the filelistbox(VBA only)

hey !

I read a bit about outlook automatication and i've found out that
you can create a form using some basic VBScript commands.
Since Outlook does not suppord VBA (like excel does) i was forced
to use this "more basic" language. The problem remains: I still do not
have a good reference to read from some instructions about the
modules and objects of VBScript. If you know any please let me
know about it. Anyway, i do not have an idea regarding the implenetation
of the command you pointed me to. Sorry im a bit new at the VBScript
(Not like VBA)...


Thanx.
