Thing thing pisses me off.
Every time I do OPEN/SAVE in Visual Basic it shows me the default Visual Basic directory. I save all my files in a special directory that is not even in the same harddisc.
Now, I know I can reinstall Visual Basic and move it to a new directory and so on but is there a way just to change the default Open/Save dir to something else?
Well, i made a link from my vb dir named it "go here" pointing at my project dir
Can you be more specific Kedaman? VitalyB, it is bugging the hell out of me too.
I did that too yet it is a headache in saving - When I want to save the a file in Visual Basic and I click on the link to go to the right dir it
He means making a shortcut to the folder you're keeping you projects in, in the default Vb folder.
Well, i really hate that myself, and i have no solution, damn i should look it up in registry some day and look if theres something like "default directory" under the vb keys.
ANyway a tip to both of you and others:
When you want to save a module for instance, you have named the module mThisModuleHasAVeryLongNameSoIHateWritingThisAgainWhenClickingThatShortcutClearsIt
and you want to save it with the same name
mThisModuleHasAVeryLongNameSoIHateWritingThisAgainWhenClickingThatShortcutClearsIt.bas
So just Ctrl-X it, click the link and Ctrl-V it and voila! YOu just go save the string.
Well, that's not too good yet, but it's something.
