    Windows type explorer sample?

    Anyone have a sample app that has the look and feel of windows explorer? Been searching around and found one, but it is so huge and complicated!

    do you want something to use in your app? or do you want to know how it works?
    because I think whatever you get should be a little complicated (if it's well written )

    Well I was hoping for something that I can use in my app. I have one that I wrote. But I cant quite figure out how to make the folders in the listview clickable(So I can access them). I was hoping to find an example that shows how this is done.

    I have to admit I am really learning alot. And the grey hairs I keep getting dont bother me cause I just keep ripping them out along with all my others.

    I mean accessible. When I click on a dir nothing happens. Same with files. With the files I figure I can just use: Process.Start("Filename.ext") but Im not sure how to go about opening the directories in the listview. Is it the simular to a treeview(explorer type)?

    You can open the folders the same way, just put the path instead of the filename and they will open in the real windows explorer.

    Process.Start("c:\")

    http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Code/20...inExplorer.asp this is exact solution but in C# . Don't worry it can be easily converted to VB.NET.
