Maybe if you try "shell:" commands? shell:NetworkPlacesFolder See http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/4941-shell-command.html Yes, it works! I knew about these registry keys "Shell Folders" (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders) but I did not know abou...

I'm using the .Navigate method to change the current folder in an Explorer window. For pExp in ComObjCreate("Shell.Application").Windows { if (pExp.hwnd = hwnd) { ; matching window found pExp.Navigate(FullPath) ; *** DOES NOT ACCEPT CLSID IN THE FORMAT "::{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}" retu...

Good. That way, my code is safe because I read the Path only for the correct Type. Thanks.

for window in ComObjCreate("Shell.Application").Windows try MsgBox % window.Document.Folder.Self.Path Hi lexikos, What is the reason for using try ? Or what's the risk of not using it? FYI, in my code, I check if window.Type is not empty to make sure window is a file Explorer (not an Internet Explo...

Avoid the error message and return an empty string? The MsgBox is not part of the function. The function returns False silently . It was not the MsgBox but a runtime error that was caused by the same typo: Error: This DllCall requires a prior VarSetCapacity. The program is now unstable and will exi...

What else should the function do? Just do nothing if the user cancel. Avoid the error message and return an empty string? The file name is a part of the path. Oh. Reading this Naming Files, Paths, and Namespaces , I was under the impression that the file name was excluded from the max length path l...

Oops... Just found that the line VarSetCapacity(sIconPath, 1024) in my last post prevents a default path to be correctly passed to the function. In fact, this line must be placed before the variable content is initialized. Like this: Gui, Show, h100 w100, PickIconDlg WinGet, hWnd, ID, PickIconDlg Va...

JnLlnd

Of course, it helps! :-) This was old code for a previous AHK version. I tried to simplify the code but the path was not updated. I realize I just forgot to replace the wIconPath variable name with sIconPath. :eh: So your code works. But, on WinXP, in case the returned path is longer than the origin...

Hi, I'm trying to use the PickIconDlg function to select an icon. All I found about this on the old site is dated 2009 and does not work on my system. I tried to find something more recent on this (not so) new AHK forum, but found nothing. I tried different variation around this code and never got i...

Thank you just me. I updated the comment above with the changes to TreeView Example.ahk.

Hi just me,

I tested it on Win7 and WinXP and it works well on both patforms.

I'll post an updated version of the class and example scripts in the next comment.

Many thanks!

Yes it does! Thank you just me!

Does the original version OK for 32-bit systems? To work on 32-bit and 64-bit system, should the script be adapted with an if checking %A_Is64bitOS% ?

OK, I found his email address.

Hi,

Does anybody knows if Rexx (on the old forum) is still active maybe under a new nickname?

I'd like to chat with him.

Two years ago, rbrtryn wrote a class module to handle treeview in Windows (http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/84310-class-remote-treeview/). It is not mentioned on what Windows version it was designed but we are some users who tried it on Win 7 finding that some methods do not work (at least GetT...

Here is a script doing what I described earlier. Not sure this is the most efficient solution but it "does the jod". Based on CLSID (not KNONWFOLDERID). ; objClassIdByLocalizedName["SpecialFolderLocalizedName"] returns the CLSID of this special folder like "{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d}" gl...

Let me explain what I want to to: I want to save info about the group of Explorer instances (screen position/size and current folder) in order to allow the user to re-open this group (restoring Explorer windows position and content). Saving position is easy. Saving the current path works well with t...
