hi Jimmyx1000

the file u want to check is any file, that is opened using other application? or using ur own application?

<div>
For example <br />
<br />
if i go to my computer and select any .exe file<br />
from any where on the hard disk.<br />
<br />
if the person double clicks an .exe then &nbsp;this file name is sent to<br />
a list to compare if it is on the list.<br />
<br />
this list is just a text file im using to check if the .exe is allowed<br />
to open or not<br />
<br />
so if its ok by the list to be opened <br />
<br />
then open the .exe<br />
<br />
if it is not allowed to be opened <br />
<br />
then stop the .exe from executing<br />
<br />
so basically<br />
<br />
.exe is clicked <br />
check file name on list<br />
if ok continue opening file<br />
if not ok stop execution of the .exe<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Intercept  a file before being Processed : vb6

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
