Hi,
I use some old application that need "short path" - previous dos style.
For example , I need to convert "C:\MyLongPath\ 1.txt" to
"c:\mylong~1\1. txt". Does exist any classes at vb.net for doing this?
Thanks,
Michael 4 6094

You can try the GetShortPathNam e API:
Declare Auto Function GetShortPathNam e Lib "kernel32.d ll" _
(ByVal lpszLongPath As String, ByVal lpszShortPath As
StringBuilder, _
ByVal cchBuffer As Integer) As Integer
Call it like this:
Dim s As String = "c:\Long Dir Name\Longfilena me.txt"
Dim sb As New StringBuilder(2 56)
GetShortPathNam e(s,sb,sb.capac ity)
MsgBox(sb.ToStr ing)

In the grid to which the columns are bound, they're both displayed as
