But now I have a need to allow the user to choose a folder path without selecting a file. Basically a folder location, on the local hard drive where my code will read the files located in the choosen folder and process against them.
I am drawing a total blank and my web searches are not giving me what I am looking for.
I initially developed this with a Windows FolderDialogBrowser control, but it will not run on the web server, likely a security issue, and I can not change it.

I've been searching for a while, but it seems that I can't find an easy way to get the current user profile folder. I've tried "%userprofile%" environment variable, but it didn't worked (or I'm doing something wrong).How can I do it? I want to add the value to an string variable.
I actually tried something like: Dim Userfolder As String = %UserProfile%
I tried with quote marks too, but none seems to do the trick.What I'm missing?

The web browser has a captcha on it.

Maybe in a picturebox or something. But it needs to be the current picture on the web browser.

im asking for help on how to Make Folder and it name by current Date?
sample today is 11-08-2011
so program will create a folder name 11-08-2011 (Nov.08,2011)
and also creation of folder triggered by timer lets say Folder creation every 11pm daily.
I'm writing an app where a user selects a folder on the network for a job to deposit output into.The person setting up the job will not necessarily be the same person who runs the job and that the job will not be ran on the same machine so I need to keep the path in UNC format. I can get the user to "see" the network when the FolderBrowserDialog runs by pointing the route folder at the desktop folder.
The issue is that if the network share is local even though the user has selected the folder through the network folders it returns the local path!! Which of course means that when the job is run on the other machine it can not find the folder specified.
E.g. The user on machine1 selects the network share \machine1jobsmyjob but the dialog returns C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob. machine2 then runs the job and looks for C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob and can not find it then throws an error.
As you can see from the above example I can't just replace c: with the local machine name as the share may not be in the root of the drive. I did think about parsing the text and changing it to \machine1c$work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob but this would mean I'd have to allow all the users to have admin access to our servers which is a non starter.if there is a way to switch off this behaviour in the dialog?
dim myDialog as new FolderBrowserDialog
With myDialog
.Description = "Browse to Job destination"

I am using the Folder Browser Dialogue to allow the EU to select a folder for HTML output. The dialogue always shows in the middle of the screen. Is it possible to set where the dialogue appears?It currently overlaps an image which is expoted to HTML, however when this image is exported, it captures part of the folder dialogue box. The image export routine is 3rd party and uses layers so I can not change the export function.Or is it possible to check the dialogue has closed prior to me performing the image export?
View 2 RepliesI have an app that displays a folder browser dialog. Before displaying it I would like to set its size but I cannot find any methods or attribute that will allow me to do so, either in the object itself or any class that it inherits from.
The only solution I can think of is to use the SetWindowPos windows function. Before I go down that road, can anyone verify that it is not otherwise possible to programmatically resize the dialog?
If it's not possible, then in vb.net to use a windows library method, do I declare it like this:
Private Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long and use it, or does .net offer another way to access the windows library?
theFolderBrowser.Description = "Please select a folder for the download."
theFolderBrowser.ShowNewFolderButton = False
theFolderBrowser.RootFolder = System.Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop
theFolderBrowser.SelectedPath = My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop
If theFolderBrowser.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Me.TextBox1.Text = theFolderBrowser.SelectedPath
