<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; .hOwner = 0

Hello,<br />
I am using the common dialog to allow the user to navigate to the folder where their data is stored. &nbsp;I only want to allow them to see and select folders. &nbsp;How do I write this in the filter command due to folders not having an extension? <br />
&nbsp;ex. commonDialog.Filter = &quot;*.exe|*.exe&quot;<br />
<br />
thanks in advance!<br />

Common Dialog filter for only folders

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
