File Open/Save dialog Restrict the user path selection Is there any way?

Hello,
Is there any way by which we can restrict the user from selecting the path from the Folder Browser/ File Open/ File Save dialog boxes?
For example, I have a list of paths & want to allow the users to select from those paths or their sub folders. Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks!

Hello Vinay Pugalia,
>>For example, I have a list of paths & want to allow the users to select from those paths or their sub folders. Is there any way to achieve this?
As far as I know, starting with Windows Vista, the Open and Save As common dialog boxes have been superseded by the
Common Item Dialog:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms646960%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
You could have a try to restrict the value of “look in”(shown in the opne dialog) and “Save in”(shpwn in the save dialog). If you want an example about the usage of this API, you could post a code sample request to:

  • How to open File open/save dialog for a file saved in the Appl. Server?

    Hi Experts,
       My requirement is that, there will be a link in my BSP page "Link to BI Report" and when the user will click this link, the File open/save Dialog box will appear for a BI Report file that will be in a fixed path in the Application Server. I have checked with <a href="/usr/sap/tmp/bi_report.csv"> tag but it is not working. The BI report file will be currently in the CSV format. Any ideas about how to achieve this? Thanks in advance.

    If you want to work in tabbed view, do it like this:
    Select the move tool. Go to the tab that contains one of the image files.
    Drag the image over the tab that has the blank document (Keep holding down the mouse button). Wait till that tab opens.
    Drag & drop the image into the blank document.

  • File Open/Save dialog

    Hi,
    One of my pet peeves about Jdeveloper and by extension of SQLDeveloper is that the file open/save dialog does not have quick way to navigate to familiar places on my computer like "My Documents" or "Desktop". For eg., in Word, I can navigate to My Recent Documents, Desktop, My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places.
    I know Jdeveloper and SQLD are also meant for the Unix Platform, but having shortcuts like My Network Places, Desktop, My Computer etc atleast for the Windows based tools would make it immensly easier to find files.
    Something even better would be to allow each person to customize that list of shortcuts he can have in that list.
    Thanks
    Alex

    Yes, this is absolutely necessary for Windows users!
    In a non-java Windows application I can usually put a shortcut to my favored directory in the directory an application might default to, then double-click it and the windows environment is smart enough to move to that directory, and I can save my files.
    Java is stupid in this regard. It thinks you are trying to save the file to the name of the shortcut. I CANNOT stand an application that isn't smart enough to set preferences to default file locations!
    I should also add that I set the USER_DIR to the directory I save all my files in (on my u:drive) and SQL Developer then runs those files without the entire path (I can just put in @a for example) but it is too STUPID to save to this directory!

  • Restrict the user to select wrong wbs

    Dear Experts,
    I am creating a purchase requisition for project material by selecting account assignment category as Q. In the line item I am selecting plant for which the material is being procured. But if I select wrong wbs element ( wbs of other plant) then also system allows the P.R. to save. The same case is for creating P.O.as well as doing goods receipt and goods issue also.
    Please guide how the system should restrict the user to select wrong wbs while creating P.R. P.O. Goods Receipt and Goods Issue.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • I had to restore my iPad recently and in opening Pages again found that even though I synced my iPad and backed it up my files did not come over to the restored iPad. Is there any way of recouperating them? Thanks!

    working files aare not backed up as far as I know. You must either 1)"copy to itunes", then use itunes to save as... to your desktop machine. Or 2) use iCloud to keep the docs.
    I also learned this the hard way. No way i know of to get the working docs back.

  • I was trying to clean up my desktop, and inadvertently switched all my icons on my desktop. When I click on file a, file b opens and so on, regardless of the extension type. Is there any way to fix this?

    I use
    Chronosync (http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html)
    and
    Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/)
    Both work very well. The former I use for manual, one-way synchroniziation of (nearly) entire systems. The latter for automatic syncing of very active directories through local and shared online storage.

  • Ok so I cant open my Itunes due to Windows Error 2 and the message says to uninstall and re-install Itunes but I'm pretty sure that would wipe the library right? Is there any way to fix the problem and keep my library?

    Hi neffn!
    I have an article for you that can help you go through that process of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. If you have Windows 7, you will want to see this article:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    and if you are using Windows XP, you will want to reference this article:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    Note that, as it says in those articles:
    iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • Since upgrading to 10.8 I've had alot of issues burning DVD's. I've had the drive replaced and now I can burn from a new user account but not the old one. Is there any way of making the old one work?

    Since upgrading to 10.8 I've had alot of issues burning DVD's. I've had the drive replaced and now I can burn from a new user account but not the old one. Is there any way of making the old one work?
    Just want to avoild spending hours migrating everything across....

    Yes, I can read but just can't write DVD's. I get:
    This disc can’t be verified and might be unreliable. Try again using a new blank disc (error code 0x80020063).
    Originally I thought it was the old Moutain Lion DVD drive issue (but have had the drive recently replaced by Apple), so I tried creating a new account, which worked.
    In the old account I have reset SMU, Pram... but no change.

  • I edit my photos in Photoshop, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto.  But if I add text to an image in Photoshop can't save as jpeg but as psd. Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    I edit my RAW photos in Photoschop CS3, save as jpeg then import back into iPhoto 11.  If I add text in Photoshop I can't save as jpeg but as psd.  Is there any way I can change to jpeg in iPhoto?

    Terence Devlin wrote:
    Yes you can. But you need to flatten it as jpeg doesn't support layers.
    While the final JPEG can't have layers, it is not necessary to flatten the original Photoshop file to create a JPEG. There are two ways to make a JPEG while not losing the flexibility of preserving layers, and they both flatten on the fly while saving.
    I just tried this in Photoshop CS3 myself. When I add a text layer, and choose Save, the Save As dialog box comes up and defaults to PSD as was described. But... that is just the default! Go ahead and choose JPEG from the Format pop-up menu down below the file list. JPEG is in there. So what happens to the layers? Notice when you choose JPEG, the Layers box grays out and the "As A Copy" box grays out and is checked (i.e. you cannot uncheck it). What is going on here is Photoshop will gladly make a JPEG of your layered file, but it will force the JPEG to be a copy, so as to not overwrite the original layered file. This is good, because your Photoshop file with its editable text layer is preserved, and you get a JPEG copy to put in iPhoto.
    The second way is, instead of doing Save or Save As, choose File/Save for Web and Devices. This will also give you a JPEG choice, and also create an exported copy. Because this way makes files for the Web, they will be smaller than JPEGs from Save As because they will lack built-in previews (which you don't really need these days) and other extra metadata that take up space.
    Either way you get a JPEG you can toss back into iPhoto.

    The Export menu in Photoshop CS3 does not have any direct choices for JPEG.

  • Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

    To download your pages from MobileMe simply mount your iDisk.
    Then navigate to the Web > Sites folder where the pages are.
    You can't do anything with them however, since iWeb cannot import them. But it's nice to know that you can download them.
    You need the domain.sites2 files, iWeb uses to store its assets. Perhaps you have a backup?
    See this page for pictures and movies to learn how to use the domain file :

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • I formerly had an iPhone 3 with my iTunes account/music on it. I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I no longer have the iPhone 3. Is there any way to retrieve music from my account and put on my iPhone 5s?

    Yes.  Sign in to the iTunes Store with the same Apple ID you used to buy the music in settings on the phone.
    Then tap on "purchased" in the iTunes app on the phone and download the music to your new iPhone.

  • My friend lost my ipod touch at the movie theatre. Is there any way i can track it?

    My friend lost my ipod touch at the movie theatre. Is there any way i can track it?

    If the FindMyiPod feature is alreay tuned on and wifi is on nd the theater has free wifi and automatically connect you can go to icloud.com and fnd its general location and have it make a sound, send it a message and wipe it. However, that feature can be defeated by turning the iPod off or restoring the iPod.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod. Report it to the theater and police.
    - Apple wil not help.
