HI,

Can any tell me how to have a VB executable open automatically once the Save As dialog box is closed. Also is there a way of 1) copying the file name from the Save As dialog box and inputting it into a text box on a VB form and 2)how to set up a VB executable so that it sits in the systems tray.

Thanks,

Cormac.
 
Hi

As for the exe loading after the closing of the dialog box you could simply shell the exe after the showopen command

shell "C:\Mine.exe",vbnormalfocus ' or something

the filename can be copied using the
commondialogbox1.filename property so it would read

text1.text = commondialogbox1.filename

the third Im not so sure about but if you check out

they may be able to help you there

Hope this helps

Nev
