[RESOLVED] browse directory

hi

how can I click a browse button to choose a directory or location (folder) not a file

thanks

Use the DirListBox control.

SHBrowseForFolder API

VB Code:

Private Sub Dir1_Change()
File1.Path = Dir1.Path
End Sub

:)

You might want to use a drive box control as well, in case the user has the file in a different drive than the application.

The DirListBox control is an old style control from VB3. It works, but BrowseForFolder looks a lot more modern (and includes drives in the same control).
