      They don't exist. You'll have to take a regular list box and populate it yourself. This would be a good opportunity for you to learn how to make custom contols in VB.NET as you make your own.

        As said those are not built into the framework. But why not use the search function on CP? drive combobox[^] folder tree[^] file listbox[^] explorer treeview[^] Look through the results. There are so many examples on it - at least one of them should fit your needs. -- modified at 2:50 Wednesday 19th July, 2006

          This is not right, you can still use these controls: (1) Right click on the toolbox and select choose items (2)Scroll down to the letter "d" area in the ".net framework components" tab and find those controls you ar searching for. (3) Tick the check boxes beside the controls and click ok. You could populate the list manually but this is time consuming and unnecessary if the controls are already available.
