[RESOLVED] Strange problem with DirListBox

I searched on this subject but noone mentioned it before.

If I use a simple combination of a DriveListBox and a DirListBox, and a simple:

dirList.Path = drvList.Drive

code for changing drives, a strange thing happens. When I select C or D drives, the DirListBox opens up on the Root of the drive, which is what is suppose to happen.

BUT, when I select drive E, it opens up to the folder where my code is located. I can't get it to open up on Root. And if I move the code to a different folder, it opens up on that folder.







Added RESOLVED to thread title and green resolved checkmark - Hack

here's a quick fix,

VB Code:

Private Sub drvList_Change()
 
    If LCase$(Left$(App.Path, 2)) = drvList.Drive Then
        dirList.Path = Left$(App.Path, 2) & "\"
    Else
        dirList.Path = drvList.Drive
    End If
 
End Sub

Thanks for the idea. Although I had to make a small change to make it work. I had to use the Left function on the drvList.Drive too because it contains the Name of the drive to.

VB Code:

If LCase$(Left$(App.Path, 2)) = Left$(drvList.Drive, 2) Then
            dirList.Path = Left$(App.Path, 2) & "\"
        Else
            dirList.Path = Left$(drvList.Drive, 2)
        End If

Thanks again! :wave:
