Opening External Drive
Feb 1 '10, 06:13 PM
is it possible to open up a certain drive like a "External Hard Drive" with a "Button" or in "Form Load" in code without using the "DirListBox "

What do you want from the drive? If searching for a file you could use the Dir function...
Now, if this drive is a USB drive you may want to look at the GetLogicalDrive String API along with the GetDriveType API...
They are in help or you could use your friends (yahoo, google, ask, answers, bing) to search for exampls on the web...
Good Luck
