    Made a Media Player! :D

    I am very happy to say that after weeks of perseverance with Visual Basic 6, i have finally made a working Media Player

    I do have 1 question for any VB whizzes out there or anyone who might be familiar in this territory.

    I have a file list box, and have set it up correctly to respond to changes to a directory and to a Drive, so it displays the contents of the correct folder on the correct drive.

    However the error I'm getting is that although the file changes, the path remains unchanged from the drive. Ill show you what I mean.

    Say if i want to get to a song called "Example" in the following location:
    D:\My Music\Hexus Examples\Example.mp3

    I could get to it either by URL in the URL bar, or by simply using the windows file boxes to navigate to the file. However this is where the problem occurs. If the media is on Drive D (a 2nd hard disk) or an alternate source, the drive letter does not change! So it will tell the player:
    C:\My Music\Hexus Examples\Example.mp3
    Instead of D:\My Music\Hexus Examples\Example.mp3

    The other directories always change fine between files, but the Drive letter just wont change! Any ideas people?

    If any1 needs a look at the player or code to help, contact me on msn messenger or Aim (AOL)

    What about if you run the program from drive D:? Does it then not find files in C:? Your program seems to not use the entire directory. I can't help you without looking at your code pertinent to this part of your program.

    Sorry I don't have either, if you want, send it to me using Hexus's messaging feature, or email, I'll see what I can do.
