A2K

I am using SHGetPathFromIDList Lib "shell32.dll" and SHBrowseForFolder Lib
"shell32.dll" to let the user select a destination folder.

But I would like to call the version of that dialog which also allows the
user-browser to create a new folder if the desired destination does not
exist.

I'm afraid I've never seen code that will let you do that with that
particular control.

Hi Brad,

I haven't tried this myself, but according to the documentation at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...eforfolder.asp
it's possible in recent versions of Windows: you just add
BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE to ulFlags in the BROWSEINFO parameter structure.
