Selecting a Folder with Common Dialog?

[bedowin]

I am wanting a user to select the default path for projects when going to open a common dialog to browse for them.

So in an options menu I wrote the following code:

Private Sub cmdBrowse_Click()

On Error GoTo DialogError
    
    With CommonDialog1
    
        .CancelError = True
        .InitDir = "C:\Temp\"
        .DialogTitle = "Select the Initial Directory"
        .ShowOpen
        
    End With
    
DialogError:
    
End Sub

But, I still have to select a particular file in order to get back to the options screen. How can I just browse into the folder that I want and then select open and have that folder value be returned to Text1.txt

Thanks for the help.

Use the browse folder dialog box instead

you can use the commondialogbox to choose a folder but (I think) it's messy

CommonDialog1.Flags = cdlOFNPathMustExist
