Hi

Does asp.net have a way of browsing for a folder

Thanks in advance

Who should do the browsing, client or server?
Where should the browsing be done, client or server?

If you answer "client" to either question, you can't do that with asp.net (as it's a server technology).
If you answer "server" on both questions, look at the System.IO namespace,
specifically the "File" and "Directory" objects therein.

If you meant navigating the server's file system, you might want to look at
this:

"AWS FilePicker is a free ASP.Net web control that lets users navigate
through a folder on the server and select a file. The user can also upload
files, create folders, and copy/move/delete files and folders. In many ways,
FilePicker emulates the "Open File" dialog in Windows applications."
 
Thanks guys
