FolderBrowserDialog question

Got a general question - Is there and way to get the FolderBrowserDialog and OpenFileDialog to show up inside a single form. The way it appears to work, I need 2 buttons on my form to display the 2 dialogs as seperate windows. I would like to have a simple form with 2 "listboxs" side-by-side to display the folders and the files in the selected folder.

I guess this is the "old" way of navigating through a folder list to select file(s). I am just trying to prevent a bunch of different windows from poping up on the users.

Anybody know how to get these 2 to display in my own form?

Thanks,

Chris
 
I found my answer in the VB help - You have to explicitly add the folder and file listboxes to the “toolbox”. Search in help under FileListBox Control for info.
