Here's two solutions to save a file
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
'
SaveFileDialog1.AddExtension = True
SaveFileDialog1.CheckPathExists = True
SaveFileDialog1.DefaultExt = "mdb"
SaveFileDialog1.FileName = "D:\BlogTest.mdb" ' Put here the filename
SaveFileDialog1.Filter = "MS Access Files (*.mdb)|*.mdb"
'SaveFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "<set initial folder if needed>"
SaveFileDialog1.OverwritePrompt = True
If SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then
' User did not save the file!
Else
' Save the file
End If
' OR
FolderBrowserDialog1.Description = "Save MS Access File"
'FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath = "<set initial folder if needed>"
'FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowNewFolderButton = True ' Allow user to create a directory?
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog() <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
' User did not select a directory!
Else
' User selected the directory, copy file to that directory
' Notice: Here's hard coded file names, you may use a variable to hold the filename
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile("D:\BlogTest.mdb", FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath & "BlogTest.mdb")
End If
End Sub
The first solution allows the user to change the file name. If you do not want the user to change the file name, use the FolderBrowserDialog.
