    Question Dragging a folder to listview question...

    Hello,

    I know how to drag a file to a listview, my question is regarding folders... How can I add a folder to the listview? I know a folder is not a file, but, is there a way to "recognize" it as a folder and then add any icon in its place?

    Thanks in advance!

    I haven't tested this but I would guess that dropping a folder would be just like dropping a file. If so then you can use Directory.Exists and File.Exists to check which it is.
