If you're working in ASP.Net then I think you'll probably find more help in the ASP forum and/or .Net forum. There are people here in VB who are willing to help out, but there's probably not the same level of experience.

The .Net suggestion still applies, though.

Just use the FolderBrowserDi alog from your toolbox. It will go into the tray below your form. Select it and press F1 for help. At the bottom, click on FolderBrowserDi alog Class. There is an example there. Or see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...serdialog.aspx

What .NET are you using: 2003 or 2005? What language? Are you saying that there is no FolderBrowserDi alog in your toolbox? (Right-click, sort alphabetic may help you locate it) If you right-click on the Toolbox and select Choose Items..., then on the NET tab, scroll-down, and in the F's you should have FolderBrowserDi alog and it should be checked. If it is missing, then you probably need to reinstall .NET
