Look in the Download page of my website for "ChopIt!" under "Visual Basic 6.0 Samples". That project contains code and a couple of modules for using the common file dialogs through API calls. What you want is the Browse Folder dialog, which is only available through the Win32 API and even there is not documented very well. There should be enough in my demo app to get you up and running fairly easily.

Thanks, Bill -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Seth Galitzer Sent: May 26, 2005 4:11 To: dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [dba-VB] CommonDialog in VB6 Bill, No need to reinvent the wheel. Look in the Download page of my website for "ChopIt!" under "Visual Basic 6.0 Samples". That project contains code and a couple of modules for using the common file dialogs through API calls. What you want is the Browse Folder dialog, which is only available through the Win32 API and even there is not documented very well. There should be enough in my demo app to get you up and running fairly easily.
