Open Direcory in WINDOWS 95/98

How would I open a window in WIN95/98 like clicking on "My computer"? In my AutoStart of my CD I want to be able to click on "Explore CD" and it will open the window.

You can use the ShellExecute API function:

Code:

---

Private Declare Function ShellExecute _
 Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" ( _
 ByVal hwnd As Long, _
 ByVal lpOperation As String, _
 ByVal lpFile As String, _
 ByVal lpParameters As String, _
 ByVal lpDirectory As String, _
 ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    'replace "d:\" with the path of your CD
    ShellExecute Me.hwnd, "Open", "d:\", vbNullString, _
    vbNullString, vbNormalFocus
End Sub

---

Good luck!

If you want to use a control then use the commondialog control, like this:
cmndlg.InitDir="d:\"
cmndlg.DialogTitle="Explore CD"
cmndlg.ShowOpen

if you want to know what file they opened then use:
TheirFile=cmndlg.filename

You can do this throught APIs also or make a form and use the Dirlistbox, FileListBox, DriveBox

Or if you want them to just explore with no response from you program then:
Shell "c:\windows\explorer.exe", vbNormalFocus

although the directory may change according to what OS they have so you may want to get the windows folder:
first reference the scripting
Public fs As New Scripting.FileSystemObject

win = fs.GetSpecialFolder(WindowsFolder)
Shell fs.BuildPath(win, "explorer.exe"), vbNormalFocus
