How to point to a Directory?

 

ok, I am new to C# so how do I, using an OpenFileDialog control or whatever is equivalent, point to a directory that I want to copy to another location?

 

Thanks

Strangely enough, there isn't a built-in control (that I've found) to similar to the OpenFileDialog that allows for directory selection and I haven't figured out a way to trick the OpenFileDialog into selecting just directories. I think you'll have to write your own, which is fairly simple or there are a number of tutorials on the net that use this as an example.

I have included the source file for the directory picker to give you an idea of how to make you own.

I like your user name, check out my site: click

MS have fixed this lack of a directory picker control in Visual Studio .NET 2003.
