OpenFileDialog Question

[Severick]

Hello, Im new to the forum. I have experienced with VB code and need help with a OpenFileDialog. I am making a small media player for practice. I have a listbox and a cmdAdd button. How will I be able to make a OpenFileDialog to add songs into the listbox?

Thanks.

Private Sub cmdAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdAdd.Click
        Dim Fn As String
        OpenFileDialog1.DefaultExt = MyExpectedExtension
        OpenFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "C:\MyMusic"
        If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
            Fn = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
        Else
            Exit Sub
        End If

        'Do what you want with Fn, the file name of the selected music file

    End Sub

HTH

What version of VB are you using? If it's VB6 (or even earlier) the posted code won't work. Hopefully you're using a more up-to-date version, though.
