I am trying to find some information on the directories<br />
list box found under the directories tab of the Tools Options dialog box in Visual C++ 4.2. &nbsp;Double clicking on a blank line int the box brings up a button on the right hand side of the line with three dots. &nbsp;Pushing this button brings up a dialog similar to file open but only shows directories which can be chosen. &nbsp;I would assume the list box stuff is done through sub-classing but any info would be appreciated. &nbsp;Finally is this directory open dialog box something I can use such as the File Open or Color Selection dialog or is it designed specifically by Microsoft for this product???<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Thanks in advance,<br />

Directory Selection Dialog Box

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
