BrowseForFolder - set root directory to Network Domain

I want the BrowseForFolder dialog to start at the domain. I can get it to start at "My Network Places" no problem, but under Windows 2000 you still have to drill thru Entire Network -> Microsoft Windows Network -> MyDomain. I can get the domain name with Environ$("USERDOMAIN"). Is there a way I can get the pidl of that, or set the dialog to start there so the list of computers is immediately presented?

Thanks.

VB Code:

Public Function BrowseForComputer(hwnd As Long) As String
    Dim bi As BROWSEINFO
    Dim retval As Long
    Dim pidl As Long
    
    'get the pidl of "My Network Places"
    retval = SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(hwnd, CSIDL_NETWORK, pidl)
    
    If retval <> 0 Then
        Debug.Print "Couldn't get network pidl."
        BrowseForComputer = ""
        Exit Function
    End If
    
    With bi
        .hwndOwner = hwnd
        .pidlRoot = pidl
        .pszDisplayName = String$(MAX_PATH, vbNullChar)
        .lpszTitle = "Browse for Computer" & vbNullChar
        .ulFlags = BIF_BROWSEFORCOMPUTER
    End With
    
    retval = SHBrowseForFolder(bi)
    
    If retval <> 0 Then
        BrowseForComputer = Replace(bi.pszDisplayName, vbNullChar, "")
    Else
        BrowseForComputer = ""
    End If
    
    Call CoTaskMemFree(pidl)
 
End Function

.pidl = CSIDL_NETHOOD gets you a little closer.

I think it may be closer to what you want. There is no CSIDL_NODENAME or CSIDL_MYDOMAIN constant, which is what you would have to have to start with a domain server-centric view of a domain.

I don't know anything that will actually help. MSDNdoesn't have anything I can find either. Interesting question....

No, the CSIDL_NETWORK constant works better. Thanks anyway.

I would think you could set it to an arbitrary folder...
