Hi Guys,<br />
I am writing a little app in which I want the user to specify a folder in which they wish to store files related to the app.<br />
I have looked at the Common Dialog control but this only works if you are returning a file name as well - I just want user to be able to 'browse' to verify the folder and possibly create a new folder and then just return this folder path.<br />
<br />
Is there a way to do this using the commom dialog control or id there another way.<br />
<br />
Cheers B Cunney<br />
