Quick question.. Commondialog allows you to select a file.. what do u use to select..

[Lord Orwell]

the pic is of the system drive list box.

the dirlistbox and drivelist box are controls. you have to put them on a form. put the form show command behind a button and you are all set.
if you use the treeview, it is more professional looking, but its much harder to program for, and you have to use a callback to set its starting directory.
