Opening documents using op.openDoc - handle error + display "cannot open the document" dialog ... SOLVED

[zarkogajic]

Hi support,

Attempting to open, for example, a ZIP file with the EU Editor, the following dialog appears:

I'm opening document from code using "op.openDoc" operation.

When a document cannot be opened the IOperation's Do method will raise an OLE Exception with some Hresult.

[Q1] How can I display the above dialog when the Do method fails?

[Q2] What is the Hresult error raised ("82190003" is the value) - is it any of standard OLE return values or system error codes?

Hello žarko,

As for the question 2 - you can read the forum rules and there would be a method with the help of which you can get the error description string.
As for the dialog - that is a simple message box that is shown by using the https://sdkhelp.pdf-xchange.com/vi ... ShowMsgBox method.
The IDs of the strings are msg.OpenDocError.Text for text, and you should specify the file name in place of the %1. As for the title - the ID is msg.OpenDocError.Hdr.
The styles are UIX_MsgBox_IconError | UIX_MsgBox_AppModal | UIX_MsgBox_StdButtonsAsCommands and UIX_MsgBox_IgnoreCancel or UIX_MsgBox_Close for buttons.

Cheers,
Alex

Alex,

How do I go from "msg.OpenDocError.Hdr" to the actual string?
