Re: Setting Import Path

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Helping is what we do here. We enjoy it or we wouldn't do it.

You may just want to verify the path when the use selects the folder and
don't set it if it is not correct. You may also want to provide another means
to set the path in case it moves for some reason. Please post back if you
need more help with this.

thanks a million, I've now got it to work just as I wanted!

One last thing (and I apologise for trying your patience even more) -
it would be nice to be able to halt the import if the user had
mistakenly selected the wrong folder for their csv files.

As the import macro is now a module, could I add something along the
lines of

If not exist MyPath() & "\localities.csv" then goto error

before deleting records and importing?

Can you suggest any pointers?

Many thanks again, and feel free to ignore if you've had enough!
