Hey guys.
I am gonna make a project where you can decide where to extract it to (the exe). Like when you're installing games or such, you can decide where to put them. I need to make this in VB6.
But when I've extracted it, I want it to make a Shortcut on the desktop.
Any idea?

This is just one way of doing this.
Ok so create a drivelistbox and a dirlist box. (You could create a textbox aswell if u dont want to use a varible)


Private Sub Drive1_Change()
Dir1.Path = Drive1.Drive
End Sub

Private Sub Dir1_Change()
text1.text=dir1.path
'or you could use a variable then it would be
'dim variable as string
'variable=text1.text=dir1.path
End Sub


ofc there are more advanced alternatives but i didn't know how good u are at vb.

EDIT: Does that move the exe file to the selected dir?

Do you mean move a file from one place to another? Such as from the same path that your program is located in, into another?

If so, heres quick example I just wrote for ya.

Load EXE as resource -> Send to customer -> Unpack resource -> Move EXE -> Make shortcut.

But Flyte, could you tell a bit more on how to do it? I dont really understand what ya mean.

BTW. Nice program there Sever. Do you know how to make it put a shortcut, to the file you copy, on the desktop?

[NINTENDO]

Dont know how to do it in vb.. not yet anyways
