SftDirectory 3.5 - ActiveX File/Folder Control

SftDirectoryFolder.Name Property

Defines the file/folder's name (including extension, if any).

Syntax

Get

Put

object

A SftDirectoryFolder object.

String

Defines the file/folder's name.

Comments

The Name property defines the file/folder's name (including extension, if any).

When setting the Name property, the file/folder is renamed. Only a relative folder name can be used (not an absolute path name).

The FileName and FileExt properties can be use to retrieve just the file name or extension.

To retrieve the file/folder name as it is displayed to the user, also use GetText(contentsSftDirectoryName).

The file/folder's full path can be retrieved using the Path property.

Examples

VB.NET

    F = AxSftDirectory1.get_Selection(0)
    If Not F Is Nothing Then
        MessageBox.Show("""" & F.Name & """ is selected (in the single selection control).")
    End If
    ' Show the selected files/folders (in a multiple selection control)
    Dim I As Integer
    For I = 0 To AxSftDirectory2.SelectionCount - 1
        F = AxSftDirectory2.get_Selection(I)
        MessageBox.Show("""" & F.Name & """ is selected (in the multiple selection control).")
