Default using BrowseForFolder shell application

thanks Jim, I cannot use that, since user will see the whole path.

do you know how to set the "top folder" ? to the api ?

Hello !

I try to use this code :

Sub ChoixRepertoire()
* *Dim objShell As Object, objFolder As Object, oFolderItem As Object
* * Dim Chemin As String

* * Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
* * Set objFolder = objShell.BrowseForFolder(&H0&, "Choisir un
répertoire", &H1&)

* * On Error Resume Next
* * Set oFolderItem = objFolder.Items.Item
* * Chemin = oFolderItem.Path

* * MsgBox Chemin
End Sub

I have Excel 2002, and Windows XP.

I'd like to block the user from dragging folders in that window. Is it
possible ?

I don't want the user to move folders while seleting it.

I've tried with the API, but I cannot set the root folder, so the user
doesn't go anywhere else in the tree

thanks !

tiah.
