file path problem

Hey all

I have this code that worked fine until i changed the file path name to allow the user to enter a input file name and an output file name. I get an error that says file not found.

Any help?


Vb Code++++++++++++++++++

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim sContent As String
Dim iInputFile As Integer
Dim iOutputFile As Integer
Dim iFirstSpace As Long
Dim iLineNumber As Long
'Dim Firstfile As String
'Dim OutputfileA As String


iInputFile = FreeFile()
D = Text1.Text
'Open App.Path & "\UCUT2.T" For Input As #iInputFile ' This will open your input file in whatever
Open App.Path & "\D" For Input As #iInputFile ' This will open your input file in whatever
' directory your App is in.
'Outputfile = Text2.Text
iOutputFile = FreeFile()
'Open App.Path & "\UCUT3.T" For Output As #iOutputFile ' This will open your output file in whatever
Open App.Path & "\TEXT2.TEXT" For Output As #iOutputFile ' This will open your output file in whatever ' directory your App is in.



Do While Not EOF(iInputFile)
Line Input #iInputFile, sContent
Print #iOutputFile, sContent

Mystr = Left(sContent, 5) = "O0000" ' Find the position of the first space

If Mystr = True Then ' Check the first character
Print #iOutputFile, "M00"
Print #iOutputFile, "(New File "; "U-CUT3.T"; " Created on )"
Print #iOutputFile, "("; Format(Now, "dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy"); ")"
Print #iOutputFile, "("; Format(Now, "hh:mm AM/PM"); ")"
Print #iOutputFile, "(File Name Below)"
End If

iFirstSpace = InStr(sContent, " ") ' Find the position of the first space
If Mid$(sContent, iFirstSpace + 1, 1) = "X" Then ' Check the first character after the first space
iLineNumber = CLng(Mid$(sContent, 2, iFirstSpace - 2)) + 1 ' Get the line number, then add 1
Print #iOutputFile, "N" & iLineNumber & " G04 P1000" ' Create and print the new line

End If
iFirstSpace = InStr(sContent, " ") ' Find the position of the first space
If Mid$(sContent, iFirstSpace + 1, 1) = "Z" Then ' Check the first character after the first space
iLineNumber = CLng(Mid$(sContent, 2, iFirstSpace - 2)) + 1 ' Get the line number, then add 1
Print #iOutputFile, "N" & iLineNumber & " G04 P1000" ' Create and print the new line


End If
Loop
Close #iInputFile
Close #iOutputFile

End Sub

Assuming you want the value in a textbox (rather than the text "TEXT2.TEXT") you need to append it to the string, eg:

Code:

---

Open App.Path & "\" & TEXT2.TEXT For ...

---

Man that was fast.

Thanks

If the application is installed in the root directory of any drive then App.Path will end with a "\" so instead of App.Path use this AppPath function

vb Code:

Private Function AppPath() As String
 
    If Right$(App.Path, 1) = "\" Then 
        AppPath = App.Path 
    Else 
        AppPath = App.Path & "\"
    End If
 
End Function
