Using the Web Viewer as a vehicle to return a VBscript result to FM

[Wim Decorte]

Based on an exchange in the "Windows Automation" forum, I've created a demo file that shows how the web viewer can be used to return the result of a vbscript to filemaker.

You can download it from the downloads section of my website: www.connectingdata.com

The demo shows a "browse for file" dialog and returns the chosen path & file name back to a FM field.

Enjoy,

Wim

Hi Wim

that was for "browse for file"...

Set objDialog = CreateObject("UserAccounts.CommonDialog")

objDialog.Filter = "FileMaker Files|*.fp7|All Files|*.*"

objDialog.FilterIndex = 2

objDialog.InitialDir = "C:"

intResult = objDialog.ShowOpen

...

which statmenth have I to modify for "browse for folder" ?

Hi Daniele,

Check this post: http://www.fmforums.com/forum/showtopic.php?tid/173921/post/193806/hl//

It uses the import mechanism but you can modify it to use the web browser if you want...
