CurDir Function
This standard VB function returns the default folder (and drive) for the specified drive. Syntax
CurDir[$][(drive)]
|
|
drive |
The letter of the drive to search |
Returns
The default drive and folder. Usage
A colon is not required after the drive name. The drive must exist, and must be within the range specified in the LASTDRIVE statement of the config.sys file. If a null argument ("") is supplied, or if no drive is indicated, the path for the default drive is returned. The dollar sign ($) in the function name is optional. If it is included, the return type is string. Otherwise the function returns a variant of vartype 8 (string). To change the current drive, use ChDrive. To change the current folder, use ChDir. Example
This example changes the current folder to C:\Windows, if it is not already the default. Sub Button_Click Dim newdir as String newdir = "c:\Windows" If CurDir <> newdir then ChDir newdir End If End Sub
