 Posted: Mon Dec 08, 2003 2:24 pm Post subject: Vague problem with SelectDirectory |
 |
|
I've made a application for a customer which contains a settings form. The
problem is that the TEdit isn't updated after the selection of a
directory with the SelectDirectory dialog. The customer is the only one that
has the problem.
var
Dir: string;
begin
Dir := DatabaseE.Text;
if SelectDirectory(Dir, [sdAllowCreate, sdPerformCreate, sdPrompt],
ID_SETTINGSDATABASEDIR) then
DatabaseE.Text := Dir;
end;
- The readonly property of the TEdit is set to true.
- The value of DatabaseE.Text is initially populated with a valid (existing)
directory.
I've tested it on a few systems (win98/win2k/winxp) and everything worked
fine.

Use the next procedure instead SelectDirectory:
********************************
Delphi tip#157: select folder dialog
