pro_vb thread: Re: Open a Directory Window from VB


Message #1 by "John Burns" <SendEMailForMe@w...> on Sat, 13 Apr 2002 16:36:29
Dear all,

I would like to click a button on the VB application that I am writing and 
for it to have the effect of showing a Directory Window as if I had right 
mouse clicked on 'Start' and then selected 'Open'.  I want to point my 
user to some records stored on the network for reference using Windows 
functionality.  I would like to be able to specify the exact directory 
when doing this, also. i.e 'n:\qualityrecords\documentation'

I am hoping that this is a (simple!) Windows API call and I'm hoping not 
to have to program a Tree View or other VB OCX.  It's simple functionality 
but I'm having trouble!!

Thanks.

Craig.
