Question

How can I get the result (meaning the file name and its location) from an Open File Dialog?

My code:

private void selectFileButton_Click( object sender, EventArgs e ) {
    var selectedFile = selectFileDialog.ShowDialog();
    //label name = fileName
    fileName.Text = //the result from selectedFileDialog
}

Answer 1

private void selectFileButton_Click( object sender, EventArgs e ) 
{
    Stream fileStream = null;
    //Update - remove parenthesis
    if (selectFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK && (fileStream = selectFileDialog.OpenFile()) != null)
    {
        string fileName = selectFileDialog.FileName;
        using (fileStream)
        {
           // TODO
        }
    }
}
