Title: Exiting _FILEDROP
Post by: Mad Axeman on May 23, 2020, 10:01:06 am

Is there a way to exit a _FILEDROP if you decide not to upload a file? Pressing esc etc doesn't seem to do anything. Only way I have found so far is to exit the program :-(

I'm using the following

Code: QB64: [Select]

1.     CLS
2.     PRINT ""
3.     PRINT " Unit cannot download direct to PC. Copy file to USB stick first."
4.     PRINT " Once you have the file on the USB stick drag and drop it to this window..."
5.  
6.     _ACCEPTFILEDROP
7.  
8.     DO
9.     LOOP UNTIL _TOTALDROPPEDFILES > 0
10.  
11.     inp$ = _DROPPEDFILE$
12.     _FINISHDROP
13.

Okay, I'm a dickhead. All I need to do is check for keyboard input between the 'DO' and 'LOOP' and see if it's chr$(27).

Strange how the obvious shows itself when you walk away for a few minutes :-)

This also happens to me very often :)
