Telling The Difference Between A OK Click And A Cancel Click On A Common Dialog Box..
When I load a mp3 file into my MMControl, it should then go and get the ID3 tags from it. But, I have a common dialog box so the user can specify what file they want to open. Now when they click the Cancel button it gives me an error because it's trying to get the ID3 tags from a file that blank filename.
To make a long story short: How do I tell when a user clicks the cancel button instead of the OK button on a File Open common dialog box.
Thanx,
Ben
Comon Dialog Cancel Click
im using common dialogs to save my files and every now and then when i click on cancel it saves the file anyway but with no extention.

How To Deal With OK And Cancel Button In Dialog?
Hello, Everyone:
I would like to get 4 variable values from dialog. So, it is not good to have 4 input box. So, I would like to have OK button in dialog. The variable will get their value from dialog form when "OK" button is clicked. It will do nothing when "Cancel" button is clicked. How can I implement?
Code:
sub OK_click()
a=..
b=..
c=..
d=..
end sub
Code:
sub Cancel_click()
end sub
However, I need to keep on doing calculations after a, b, c, d have their values. So, I don't know how exactly I should deal with "OK" and "Cancel". Would someone be kind to help me out?
Thank you very much!

Cancel Button For Option Dialog
I have an option dialog in my program with a consideral amount of options. If anything in the options dialog was changed and the cancel button was pressed after, everything would return to normal on re-load of the form.
I thought that making the button.cancel = true and putting Unload Me in the form_unload code that it would work, but instead when you re-load the form all the controls are blank, all the stuff is gone, i.e a combo box is empty when it was full before. Why is this happening?
If it is meant to do this how do I make everything return to normal without resorting to 50 pages of code.

Problem With Common Dialog And Cancel Button
Hi,
sorry, i know this has been asked a lot of times on this board, but i've tried all the solutions and nothing works for me.
Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
On Error GoTo cancel_error
CommonDialog1.CancelError = True
CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter
Printer.PaintPicture LoadPicture(App.Path & "
eportlogo_report.bmp"), 9000, 750
Printer.PaintPicture Picture2.Image, 1500, 2000, , , , , , , vbSrcCopy
Printer.EndDoc
Exit Sub
cancel_error:
Exit Sub
End Sub
My problem is that when the printer dialog box open and i click on cancel button it doesn't reach the cancel_error (error threatment) line but i get an error messagebox saying: "error 32755 at runtime, cancel has been selected" on line CommonDialog1.ShowPrinter.
I just want to exit sub when i click on cancel.
what can i do?
Thanks in advance!
Cancel Button Not Working Properly While Using Common Dialog
hi,
I m using VB macros in the Microsoft Project Plan to convert the plan into xml using the common dialog.
Its working fine for Save the MPP into xml format.
However once i save it and then try to use the Save as menu, it captures the name of the file which i saved earlier and even if i cancel the dialog box, the file is saved using that name.
im attaching the code for reference:
DialogForm.CommonDialog1.Filter = "All Xml (*.xml)"
DialogForm.CommonDialog1.ShowSave
If (DialogForm.CommonDialog1.fileName = "") Then
End If
If (DialogForm.CommonDialog1.fileName <> "") Then
xmlFileName = DialogForm.CommonDialog1.fileName + ".xml"
anybody has any idea, why the problem is coming.

Why Does It Come Up Runtime Error '13' When I Click Cancel?
I am working on a simple program just to add students to a list, for a school. Well, that's what I've come up with so far, anyway. For some reason it comes up with "Runtime Error '13' when I click cancel. Here is my code so far.
Private Sub cmdStudentEntry_Click()
Dim NoOfLoops As Integer
Dim StudentName As String
NoOfLoops = InputBox("How many students do you want to add?")
For i = 1 To NoOfLoops
StudentName = InputBox("Enter a student name:")
lstStudents.AddItem (StudentName)
Next i
End Sub
My command button is called "cmdStudentEntry" and my list box "lstStudents"
Common Dialog ShowSave Cancel Error
Why doesn't this work? When I press the "Cancel" button, I get run-time error 32755 "Cancel was Selected". I have an error handler and I have the cancelerror property set to true. (I have also set the property to true in the properties button of the common dialog).
Private Sub mnuExcelExport_Click()
Dim export As Boolean
Dim strFileName As String
On Error GoTo Cancel_Error
With CommonDialog1
strFileName = CJobCost.JobName & Trim(" Job Costs.xls")
.Filter = "Excel (*.xls)|*.xls"
.FileName = strFileName
.CancelError = True
.ShowSave
If .FileName <> "" Then
export = spreadItems.ExportExcelBook(.FileName, "")
End If
End With
Exit Sub
Cancel_Error:
If Err.Number <> cdlCancel Then
MsgBox Err.Description
End If
End Sub
Common Dialog Cancel Error Trap?
If the user hits Cancel on the Common Dialog box... the way my program i set up now the code keeps running and i get to an error because no file has been selected.
If they hit cancel, I want to return to the previous state... basically.. where the main form is being displayed and everything is idle. I hope i've explained so you understand.
Thanks,
Eric

Error With Cancel Button
I'm using a data control and trying to put in some
error handling for the cancel button(after clicking
the add new button). I notice if I enter a value in
the primary key field that is not unique I get an error.
I also get an error if I press the space bar and then Cancel.
I understand this in a Save button but when using the
cancel it doesn't seem like I should have to use a msgbox
to say enter a unique value just to cancel.
Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
'Cancel the update of the record
On Error GoTo HandleErrors
datPub.Recordset.AddNew
datPub.Recordset.CancelUpdate
enablebuttons
cmdSave.Enabled = False
mnuSave.Enabled = False
cmdAdd.Enabled = True
mnuAddRecord.Enabled = True
cmdCancel.Enabled = False
mnuCancelRecord.Enabled = False
txtID.SetFocus
Exit Sub
HandleErrors:
Select Case Err:
Case 3426 'action canceled by associated object
MsgBox "ID already exist" & vbCrLf & "You must use a unique value", vbOKOnly
txtID.Text = ""
txtID.SetFocus
Exit Sub
Case Else 'all other errors should cancel execution
Err.Raise Err
End Select
Resume
End Sub
Thanks,
Eric
Getting A Button Click From A Custom Dialog Box
I hope that I can describe what I am trying to do.
I am using VB.NET
First this is a database application that has users entering data from paper forms. The data forms have a table class that handles the access to/from the db. When the data form is opened it instantiats(sp?) a table class obj passing a refference of the form to the class. This refference is used when opening a dialog box from the class. What I want to do is get the button click event from the dialog box and handle it in the class. Here is the code that I have so far for this.
Code:
Dim frmChanges As New frmVerifyChange()
frmChanges.txtChanges.Text = _DDE.strChangeHistory
frmChanges.ShowDialog(_frmParent)
:confused:
'WHAT DO I NEED TO PUT HERE TO RECIEVE THE BUTTON CLICK?
'THE BUTTON COULD BE cmdYes or cmdNo
frmChanges.Close()
Thank you for your help,

I'm trying to capture when a user hits the cancel button on my fileopen CommonDialog control, but it's not going to the errorhandler line.
Any idea why not?

Then punkt_pos = cn1 Debug.Print punkt_pos End If Next cn1 File_trim = Mid(testfileloc, (slash_pos + 1), ((punkt_pos - slash_pos) - 1)) DoEvents ShowEv = True End If Call Log_Append(CStr(Log_File_Dir), CStr(strCompName), "Work File Selected.", CStr(testfileloc)) Exit Sub errorhandler: Call Log_Append(CStr(Log_File_Dir), CStr(strCompName), "Work File Selection", "Cancel Button Selected.") Debug.Print Err.NumberEnd Sub
Button Click Function Error
I get this error message : Method or data memeber not found at a line where I am defining my button cmbSearch click. Here is the function that defines it:
[vb]

Case Else
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM ECOs"
End Select
Call gOpenConnection
Call FillRecordSet(strSQL, gobjRs, True)
Call gCloseConnection
End Sub
What's wrong with it?

Common Dialog Box: Do Something On Cancel
I allow the user to save a file using the Common Dialog box (Save As).
However I encounter a problem when trying to get the “Cancel” button to work, my goal is that when the user presses cancel, a Boolean key (Cancel) is set to true, if not it is left false.
Currently my code is:
On Error GoTo SaveErrHandler
ComDiaS.CancelError = True
ComDiaS.DialogTitle = "Save As"
ComDiaS.ShowSave
ComDiaS.FileName
SaveErrHandler:
Cancel = True
However this doesn’t work because no matter what, Cancel is always set to True.
The SaveErrHandler part is always run (seeing as it was placed before the “End Function”, but placing it outside gives an error (unknown SaveErrHandler).
Cancel On Common Dialog Box.
Hi,

THE DIALOG BOX DOES SHOW UP, BUT IF THE USER THEN DECIDES NOT TO SAVE THIS FILE AND CLICKS ON CANCEL, HOW DO I DO THIS IN VB.
HERE IS MY CODE WITH A COMMENT ON WHERE I WANT THE CODE TO FIT IN.
IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE IS THERE ANY OTHER SOLUTION.

Common Dialog Cancel
I looked at the Common Dialog FAQ and it doesn't address this issue!
On using the ShowOpen property, how do you allow the cancel button to be used? As it is now, the file loads regardless of whether you click OK or CANCEL.
I thought .CancelError was what I needed but it doesn't seem to work as I expect.

Lose Max-Button, Cancel-Button And Keep Min-Button
Hi Folks,
I want to make a child-window fixed in the sense that a user could minimize it
( to an icon in the MDI ) but NOT close the child nor maximize it. The form needs to be fixed in terms of size, and Gawd help me if a user ever looses it.
How can I keep just the MinButton = True and not even show the MaxButton or that blasted red "X" Button?? Making ControlBox = False closes all three of those buttons.
Thanks

Auto Click Yes / No (OK/Cancel)
URGENT!
This seems to be an issue that a lot of people would have run into; however, I couldn't find the answer anywhere so here is the issue:
I am running a program call: Introspect Batch made by Zantaz company. Each time I run an update batch file gainst the database, there is a pop-up message saying "you will override the current data... do you want to continue?"
If I only run 1-2 update files, that's no problem, but it is an issue when you run 200-300 update batches. You have to be at the computer to click Yes, otherwise the program just sit there.
I am looking for a quick way to by pass this. Do you know if there's an easy way or a small utility that I can tell it to click the Yes button each time such a pop-up window shows up?
Thanks...

Cancel A Mouse Click
Does anyone know if you can catch a mouse click and cancel it so it has no effect on the program.
Sorta like the keyascii = 0 scenario.....etc etc.
What i am trying to do is turn a menu item into a heading. I'm aware you can set enable to false but the text is then ghosted and hard to read.

Cancel A Click Event
Hi,
Let's say that a user clicks on a listbox's item, the click event is generated. What if after some validation, the program should move back to the previous index because something is missing etc.
How can I cancel a click event?
I tried to change the listindex to the old one, but that generates another click event.
Thanks,

I'm not sure if you can use KillDoc to stop printing if it was set to the printer from the commondialog box, but you might try this. The bold stuff is what I added to your code.
