how do you browse shared directories as well as local? (code included)

[TeaAddictedGeek]

I'm trying to implement a browser that will show directories, including shares on the networked server.<br>
Here's the code I have so far for my directory/file browser:<br>
<br>
<br>
-----------<br>
Sub drvBrowser_Change()<br>
dirBrowser.Path = drvBrowser.Drive<br>
End Sub<br>
<br>
Sub dirBrowser_Change()<br>
flbBrowser.Path = dirBrowser.Path<br>
lblFilename = flbBrowser.Path<br>
End Sub<br>
<br>
Sub flbBrowser_Click()<br>
If Mid$(flbBrowser.Path, Len(flbBrowser.Path), 1) = "\" Then<br>
lblFilename = flbBrowser.Path & flbBrowser.FileName<br>
Else<br>
lblFilename = flbBrowser.Path & "\" & flbBrowser.FileName<br>
End If<br>
<br>
End Sub<br>
--------<br>
<br>
<br>
Can anyone help?<br>
<br>
<br>

What is the error?<br>
flbBrowser. Path may include "\\".<br>
Bummer. Remove the extra "\" and it will work on "shared" but nowhere else.<br>

Ooops.... not on my work machine... probably gave the reverse solution.<br>

There IS no error; the code works fine!<br>
<br>
<br>
It only browses local directories, and I wish to browse shared directories as well.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Can anyone help?

Are they mapped? Do you have rights? I can browse the entire network with my VB apps. More info would probably help.

They are mapped, I have rights... I do it all the time with windows explorer.<br>

I essentially want to create my own little windows explorer application; access to files isn't necessary needed.
