[2005] Openfiledialog and windows recent files -
I use the openfiledialog from .net components. It runs as I want except that every files selected with this dialog also appear in recent files in window startmenu
. If I understand this useful sometimes, for my application it's boring, very boring. Imagine that every file opened in vb would be referenced in recent files!!!!I found to change a property or something like that but I failed.
Can opendialogfile avoid filling windows recent files?
Thanks.
