opening files
i have created a small application to store files in particular folders using drag and drop. (i am not very experienced so please help)
i now able to search through the main folder and its sub folders, everything ok so far. My search lists the found items in a list box (say all word docs)i use the following code and it opens the main interface but will not allow me to open the word doc. i am doing this modularly so it is a single form.
i have included the whole form the area for concern is:
private void button2_Click_1(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
thank you.
