Hi,
I need a modified version of the built-in BrowseDlg that does not verify or try to create the selected folder. For this purpose, I cloned the dialog and removed the "Verify and set selected folder path" event which the "OK" button publishes.
However now I don't know how to read out the value that is stored in the edit field of the dialog. The only clue I have is the "_BrowseProperty" property which is connected to the dialog's edit field, but when I try to get its value, it contains the name of a property and not the value from the edit.
The reason why I want to do this is that I need to modify the selected path before storing it into the calling dialog's property.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Hans

Re: Modifying the BrowseDlg
Hello Hans,
Usually, the value of the edit box control (or any control in which you can input a value) is stored in the property assigned to that control.
For instance, the value stored in the edit box control from the following screenshot is stored in the EDIT_1_PROP property.
The "How to select an external file during the installation" article might help you recreate the dialog from scratch.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Catalin
