C#: Graphical display of directories.

I dunno if this is the right place or even if we can ask on programming or not. If not, then my apologies.

I am basically making a program in C# that appends either at the beginning or the end of a file name characters, numbers, etc.

The program works nicely. However, having to type out the directory can be a pain, and would especially not be useful to those who are not so computer gifted.

I am wanting to make a graphical display that allows the user to transverse through directories. It will show a.) regular files and b.) directories.

I don't know if there is a way to use the graphical icons that various programs need. I suppose that is not necessary, as in truth I only need icons to show a directory and non-directory. Or maybe not even icons (I suppose even having some text saying directory and file will do). The BIG thing though is allowing the user to transverse through folders, being able to go up to the root folder and down from one folder into another.

Thanks for help you guys can provide on this.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

OpenFileDialog? That's built into .NET and you're program will look uniform with other programs.

How ya doing, buddy?

That's almost it. The only problem I am running into is it wants to open a file. However, I am just wanting it to use it to save the directory that the user's files are in that will have the file names changed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I don't remember how (and I don't have VS.NET installed), but there is something you set either when you construct it or when you create it that sets it to open the current directory and not choose files in the list box. It's somewhere in the docs for it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Ah, I got it. It's not actually openfiledialog but folderdialong. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though (open dialogs).

How ya doing, buddy?
