object

A SftMaskAutoComplete object.

String

Defines the default directory for filenames and directory lists.

Comments

The DefaultDirectory property defines the default directory for filenames and directory lists.

This property is ignored when the AutoComplete.Contents property is set to contentsSftMaskText.

When autocomplete displays files or directories, it shows files and directories found in the directory defined using the DefaultDirectory property or using the partial path entered in the edit control.

    AxSftMask1.Caption.SizePercent = 33
    AxSftMask1.Caption.Text = "&Filename:"
    AxSftMask1.Mask = ""
    AxSftMask1.MaxLength = 300
    AxSftMask1.PromptUnderline = False
    AxSftMask1.AutoComplete.Contents = SftMaskAutoCompleteContentsConstants.contentsSftMaskFilesDirs
    AxSftMask1.AutoComplete.DefaultDirectory = "C:\"
    AxSftMask1.OLEDragMode = SftMaskOLEDragModeConstants.OLEDragSftMaskManual
