MS Access - drive and folder lists
Hi guys,
I have two questions to ask to get the same solution...
1. How do you create a drive/folder/ file listing on an access form?
or
2. Is there a reference library that I can add to get dedicated combo and list boxes???
Sorry - I didn't know whether this belongs in database development or office development.

Re: MS Access - drive and folder lists
What do you mean by "dedicated combo"'s?
You could add a reference to VB 6's dir and file listboxes but then the db will have a dependancy of needing those files if you distribute your db.

Yep those are the dedicated combo boxes I was talking about... the file and dir listboxes... I didn't know what they were called... what's the library that I can use to reference them?
My program won't be distributed... it's just the one instance with a single user.
Thanks in advance

Re: MS Access - drive and folder lists
I could have sworn I have see or done it before but it wont allow the reference to the control to be added. Other controls are fine but not any of the mscomctl controls.
