I'm revamping a program and am having a bit of trouble. See I was using StreamReader in my last program.

• Perl Not Opening File

Whenever you need to allow a user to open a particular file without forcing the user to type the full path and file name, you can use the OpenFileDialog class.

The user had to type the path and file into a textbox to get the program to load the information it needed. So I wanted to change that and use a OpenFileDialog method. I got the open file dialog method working but the 1st step before I go anywhere else with this program is getting the path to the file that was opened as it is needed to load images within the same folder.

Perl Not Opening File

I tryed the Path.GetDirectoryName like I used when I was using StreamReader, but it does not work where the obect is not a string but a stream already. Im sorry if this is a very basic question but I have not done any programming in VB.NET with OpenFileDialog before and I am very interested in getting this to work. Thanks to anyone who can help:).
