try this one, it have some limited. Add System.Design into References. Use method ShowDialog() to show using System; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Windows.Forms.Design; namespace WindowsApplication1 { /// /// this provides the BrowseFolderDialog for browse folders. /// public class BrowseFolderDialog : FolderNameEditor { FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser fBrowser; public BrowseFolderDialog() { fBrowser = new FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser(); } public string DirectoryPath { get {return fBrowser.DirectoryPath;} } public DialogResult ShowDialog(string txtDescription) { // set the Description label fBrowser.Description = txtDescription; fBrowser.StartLocation = FolderBrowserFolder.MyDocuments; return fBrowser.ShowDialog(); } ~BrowseFolderDialog() { // destructor fBrowser.Dispose(); } } }

There is System.Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog in .NET 1.1 and up. For applications targeting .NET 1.0, you'll have to create a look-alike or encapsulate the SHBrowserForFolder API. There are several articles here on the CodeProejct site that discuss the latter option. The component I mentioned first is very easy to use, just like the OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog components.
