Using a form to return information

[shadowfyre]

My program copies files from a user's hard drive to a network drive. In one case, the user must decide into which subdirectory a file should go. I want to pop up a form that asks, "Should this file go into subdirectory A?" and give two radio buttons of yes and no and an OK button.

I'd like the popup form to return a 1 if the yes radio button is checked and a 0 if the no radio button is checked so I could use the result in an if statement like:

Dim Frm2 As Form2
Dim dir As String
 
If Frm2.show().result() Then
     dir = "SubdirectoryA"
Else
     dir = "SubdirectoryB"
End If

I have Frm2.show().result(), but I don't know what should go there.

Does this make any sense?

Couldn't you use a "Save As" dialog control?

Actually on second look wouldn't a normal Msgbox work?

If MsgBox("Should this file go into subdirectory A?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo) = MsgBoxResult.Yes Then
            dir = "SubdirectoryA"
        Else
            dir = "SubdirectoryB"
        End If

Thanks Edneesis. I broke out in a cold sweat when I looked at your tutorial, but the MsgBox idea was right up my alley.

I am ashamed that I didn't think of it myself.
