q113960096 Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 I am trying to change the location of "My Documents", I am unable to get SHSetFolderPath to work To use the function, you must call GetProcAddress Thank you!!!
James Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) Hi, username that I can't be bothered to copy out... I used SHGetFolderPath in my application >iTunesTweet, so with a bit of work, you should be able to figure out SHSetFolderPath. Func SHGetSpecialFolderPath($csidl) Local $hwndOwner = 0, $lpszPath = "", $fCreate = False, $MAX_PATH = 260 $lpszPath = DllStructCreate("char[" & $MAX_PATH & "]") $BOOL = DllCall("shell32.dll", "int", "SHGetSpecialFolderPath", "int", $hwndOwner, "ptr", _ DllStructGetPtr($lpszPath), "int", $csidl, "int", $fCreate) If Not @error Then Return SetError($BOOL[0], 0, DllStructGetData($lpszPath, 1)) Else Return SetError(@error, 0, 0) EndIf EndFunc ;==>SHGetSpecialFolderPath Edited July 8, 2013 by James Blog - Seriously epic web hosting - Twitter - GitHub - Cachet HQ
