Recent files in combobox
-
Hi, Is it possible to display the recent files in a combobox in the same way windows does it when you go to open a file. If you start typing text a dropdown is displayed with files that match the text being entered.
If you're trying to do this in your own ComboBox list, outside of a standard OpenFileDialog, then you'll have to write all the code that keeps track of which folder the user is in and get the list of files in that folder so you have something to populate the ComboBox with as the user types. Is this what you're doing?

Here's some VB6 code you might be able to use: http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=6529[^]
