FolderBrowser and browsing for computer

[Nik Vale]

I am trying to use the FolderBrowser dialog to select a computer.

The dialog behaves correctly but once I have selected a computer and clicked OK the selection in empty.

This behaviour is also present in the example FolderBrowserDemo.

I set the FolderBrowseStyle to be BrowseForComputer and the StartLocation to be NetworkNeighborhood.

Thanks

Hi Nik,

Thank you for bringing this problem to our attention. A QA report has been filed and, though a timeframe cannot be guaranteed, we will do our best to address this issue in a future update to Essential Tools. We are currently looking into this issue and I will update this message if and when we arrive at a workaround/fix.

Nik,

This issue has been addressed. The FolderBrowser component that ships with the next update to Essential Tools(due in a couple of weeks) will return the name of the selected computer in the FolderBrowser.DirectoryPath property.
