Browse Network Dialog

How can I pull up a browse network dialog box? I found some code to bring up the browse folder dialog but that does not do it. A good example of what I am trying to do is similiar to when you map a drive in win2000 and click browse. It brings up a browse network dialog box and then returns a UNC path to a text box.

I had asked a similar question a while back. One of the Guru
's answered me with this:

In a module:

Code:

Private Type SHITEMID
cb As Long
abID As Byte
End Type

Private Type ITEMIDLIST
mkid As SHITEMID
End Type

Private Type BROWSEINFO

lpszTitle As Long
ulFlags As Long

End Type

Private Declare Function SHBrowseForFolder Lib "shell32" (lpbi As BROWSEINFO) As Long

Private Declare Function lstrcat Lib "kernel32" Alias "lstrcatA" (ByVal lpString1 As String, ByVal lpString2 As String) As Long

Private Const FLDR_NETWORK = &H12
Private Const BIF_BROWSEFORCOMPUTER = 4096
Public Function BrowseNetwork(ByVal lHwnd As Long, ByVal sTitle As String) As String

Dim tIDL As ITEMIDLIST
Dim lIDList As Long
Dim sBuffer As String
Dim tBI As BROWSEINFO
Dim sComputer As String
Dim lFolder As Long

lret = SHGetSpecialFolderLocation(0, FLDR_NETWORK, tIDL)

sComputer = Space(260)
With tBI
.hwndOwner = lHwnd
.pIDLRoot = tIDL.mkid.cb
.lpszTitle = lstrcat(sTitle, "")
.ulFlags = BIF_BROWSEFORCOMPUTER
.pszDisplayName = StrPtr(sComputer)
End With

lIDList = SHBrowseForFolder(tBI)
sComputer = StrConv(sComputer, vbUnicode)
BrowseNetwork = Left(sComputer, InStr(sComputer, Chr(0)) - 1)
Call CoTaskMemFree(lIDList)
End Function


Private Sub Command1_Click()
Caption = BrowseNetwork(hWnd, "Select a Computer..")
End Sub
