[RESOLVED] [2005]Regarding a Change Between VB6->VB 2005

[Seraphino]

Ok, In VB6 they have a DriveListBox and a FileListBox, I was wondering what the equivalent is in VB 2005. Or is there another way if it is not a component, I am doing a really cool program and would really appreciate it if someone could help me.

Thanks everyone!

There are no controls that correspond directly. You can use the ComboBox, TreeView and ListView controls to list files and folders. They can be customised in various ways which would include showing icons for files and folders. There are numerous third-party examples where the customisation has already been done. For instance, the ElementsEx library in my signature has a TreeView control optimised for displaying folders and a ListView optimised for displaying files. If you want ComboBoxes for files and folders, which I believe that those VB6 controls basically were, then The Code Project would be the first place I'd be looking. See my signature for a link.
