Topic: About CopyTo

Hello Dmitri

Please, a question :

When I want to store a picture in an external folder, I select Type : LinkFile.
But how correctly use method CopyTo. (Please, an example of the syntax)

A suggestion for next version of MVD :

To improve method CopyTo by using a button embedded in ObjectInspector (see picture joined)
By the way, we could select the good folder only with a click of the mouse, without having to type the right name).
That would give a sacred stamp to MVD.

Otherwise, I read on Russian forum, that with MDV 1.49, we can send an SMS directly since the application.
Then felicitation, I've never seen that from others softs competitors of MVD.

Thanks for answers
YY

Re: About CopyTo

Hello Dmitry

Thanks for your help.
Well I didn't know what information  to fill methode CopyTo
Now It's clear

I guess to retrieve the picture, I'll use Form1.DBImage1.LoadFromDatabase('employees', 'photo', Form1.GridEmployees.dbItemID);

What's your advice about my proposition for next version ?
Is it possible ?
We could choose a particular folder (ex c:\myapp\books\ludlum) or (c:\myapp\books\clancy) or (c:\myapp\books\coben) and so on...
Or (c:\myapp\rock\) or (c:\myapp\blues\) or (c:\myapp\jazz\)...

Thanks again

YY

I'm not sure of the need for this option.
You can change the folder using the script

Form1.DBFile1.dbCopyTo := 'c:\myapp\jazz\';
