Menu Item

[kronecker@yahoo.co.uk]

I have a problem loading a file from the Menu item. In fact I just
copied from another program where it works.

Private Sub toolStripMenuIt emLoadSession_C lick(ByVal sender As
Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles
toolStripMenuIt emLoadSession.C lick
Try
Dim fi As New FileInfo(Applic ation.Executabl ePath)
openFileDialogD ump.InitialDire ctory = fi.DirectoryNam e
openFileDialogD ump.AddExtensio n = True
openFileDialogD ump.DefaultExt = "xml"
openFileDialogD ump.FileName = "UserSession.xm l"
Dim dr As DialogResult = openFileDialogD ump.ShowDialog( Me)
If dr = System.Windows. Forms.DialogRes ult.OK Then

Me.myUser.Predi cates.loadSetti ngs(openFileDia logDump.FileNam e)
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Me.richTextBoxO utput.Text += ex.Message &
Environment.New Line
End Try
End Sub

I get the error that openFileDialogD ump does not exist. Any ideas?

Did you drag an openFileDialog on your surface and give it the name as used
in the code?

Make sure you named your OpenFileDialog component as
"openFileDialog Dump" in properties window which is dragged-dropped on
your form from toolbox.

Or, instantiate OpenFileDialog class with the name of your variable in
your "try" block as:

Dim openFileDialogD ump As New OpenFileDialog

...then use it.
