[02/03] Windows Explorer within my app
Is there a way to have a Windows Explorer instance inside my app, with the navigation bar hidden (see attached picture)? Basically, I will know how the data is stored, and making a selection from a list on the left will navigate to a certain folder. The pic doesn't show it, but there will be other tabs that will also need an Explorer in them. These tabs will be filled with different data that is related.

I am not sure if the "WebBrowser" control exists in Framework 1.1 but if it does then you can use it by draging and droping on to your form.
Edit * Never mind! i thought you want exploar.
I have done windows explore but using ListView control. I think you can use listview control and add the files to it.

OK, I thought about using a WebBrowser, but I think you are right, it isn't in 1.1. I don't think using a listview will accomplish what I want to do. Basically, I want all the functionality that Windows Explorer has built in, not just a list of files.

I afraid there is no way you can use windows explorer since there is no such a control and even if you use Process.Start path to some folder then at some point you will se some navigation buttons on it.
With listView control you can write the code behind that will have almost all the functionality of the windows explorer.

That is what I was hoping to avoid.
