I'm using the browseforfolders thing (code below) and I'm wondering if it's possible to control where on the screen it appears. Anyone?
Option Explicit
Public Type BrowseInfo
hwndOwner As Long
pIDLRoot As Long
pszDisplayName As Long
lpszTitle As Long
ulFlags As Long
lpfnCallback As Long
lParam As Long
iImage As Long
End Type
Public Const BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS = 1
Public Const MAX_PATH = 260
Public Declare Sub CoTaskMemFree Lib "ole32.dll" (ByVal hMem As Long)
Public Declare Function lstrcat Lib "kernel32" Alias "lstrcatA" (ByVal lpString1 As String, ByVal lpString2 As String) As Long
Public Declare Function SHBrowseForFolder Lib "shell32" (lpbi As BrowseInfo) As Long
Public Declare Function SHGetPathFromIDList Lib "shell32" (ByVal pidList As Long, ByVal lpBuffer As String) As Long
Public Function BrowseForFolder(hwndOwner As Long, sPrompt As String) As String
'Declare variables to be used
Dim iNull As Integer
Dim lpIDList As Long
Dim lResult As Long
Dim sPath As String
Dim udtBI As BrowseInfo
'initialise variables
With udtBI
.hwndOwner = hwndOwner
.lpszTitle = lstrcat(sPrompt, "")
.ulFlags = BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS
End With
'Call the browse for folder API
lpIDList = SHBrowseForFolder(udtBI)
'get the resulting string path
If lpIDList Then
sPath = String$(MAX_PATH, 0)
lResult = SHGetPathFromIDList(lpIDList, sPath)
Call CoTaskMemFree(lpIDList)
iNull = InStr(sPath, vbNullChar)
If iNull Then sPath = Left$(sPath, iNull - 1)
End If
'If cancel was pressed, sPath = ""
BrowseForFolder = sPath
End Function
