SftDirectory 3.5 - ActiveX File/Folder Control

SftDirectoryFolder.Path Property

Defines the file/folder's full path.

Syntax

Get

object

A SftDirectoryFolder object.

String

Defines the file/folder's full path.

Comments

The Path property defines the file/folder's full path.

The file/folder's name can be retrieved using the Name property.

Certain folders, such as "My Computer" and "My Network Places", etc., return an empty string as the Path property. These are "virtual" folders, which do not physically exist.

Examples

VB.NET

    AxSftDirectory1.get_ColumnEntry(0).HeaderText = "Folder"
    AxSftDirectory1.get_ColumnEntry(1).HeaderText = "Full Path"
    AxSftDirectory1.get_ColumnEntry(1).Contents = SftDirectoryContentsConstants.contentsSftDirectoryUser1
    AxSftDirectory1.Reload(False, False)
End Sub

Private Sub AxSftDirectory1_UserContents(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AxSftDirectoryLib30._ISftDirectoryEvents_UserContentsEvent) Handles AxSftDirectory1.UserContents
    If e.contents = SftDirectoryContentsConstants.contentsSftDirectoryUser1 Then
        e.userString = e.folder.Path
