    Create directory/file explorer

    How do I create a directory/file explorer in one box? I know how to create them seperately but I would rather have it so when you click the directory the files are listed also for that directory in the same box? I'm new to VB and stil learning.

    Whats your need/use for this? Sounds like either for display use or maybe as a file picker ?

    Then add the componenet to your toolbox by the menu ...

    Project > Components > Controls tab > check "Microsoft Common Dialog Control 6.0" > click OK. Now drag the control from your toolbox to your form. Setup its properties and call the .Showopen metho.
