FolderBrowserDi alog has VANISHED!

The FolderBrowserDi alog control in my toolbox has vanished!

I did not delibratly remove it and it is just not there anymore. I tried to
add it back to the toolbox but there isn't even a .NET component (or even a
COM) available to select from in the "Customize Toolbox" window!

I noticed there is a RESET button on the "Customize Toolbox" window but I
have a number of custom controls it said it would delete. I was hesitant
about that since I wasn't even sure it would fix the problem.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get my FolderBrowserDi alog Control back?

"FolderBrowserD ialog" is not listed on the ".NET Framework Components" tab?

Are you sure a reference to "System.Windows .Forms.dll" exists in the
project?

Are you sure .NET 1.1 is installed on the machine and you are running VS.NET
2003?

I'm using VS 2002...

I just installed 1.1 Service Pack 1 but the About menu under Help shows I'm
using 1.0...

I guess this is the problem. Is the FolderBrowserDi alog not available in
2002?

I switch between computers and this is the first one I've encountered that
didn't have the FolderBrowserDi alog.

'FolderBrowserD ialog' is only available in .NET 1.1. VS.NET 2002 doesn't
support .NET 1.1. You'll need VS.NET 2003 in order to use
'FolderBrowserD ialog'.

I have installed the new Visual Studio 2003 and implemented the FolderBrowserDialog. Everything works fine, if I open the FolderBrowserDialog before opening a Database Connection. If I open the FolderBrowserDialog after I opened the database connection no folders will be displayed in the FolderBrowserDialog. It's empty.

Hi, The following code shows the FolderBrowserDialog = broken. FolderBrowserDialog folderDialog = new FolderBrowserDialog(); folderDialog.ShowNewFolderButton = false; folderDialog.ShowDialog(); Setting ShowNewFolderButton to false does bugger all. If I set this to false it is STILL shown. Genius.

I have narrowed a problem down to a simple example. A form with two buttons. One EXIT and one FBD. The exit button does an "END" to end the application. The FBD button does a FolderBrowserDialog and nothing else. When I start the application and hit EXIT everything works fine. However if it display the FBD box (even if I don't pick a folder and immediately hit cancel) and then try to exit one of two things happens. Either (1) the...

I'm trying to create a program that dynamicly saves and loads path of a FolderBrowserDialog , but I ran into a problem. Since FolderBrowserDialog is not a Control, therefore it doesn't have attribute such as Name. How do I get the name of a Component or unique string to identify each FolderBrowserDialog instances in the my form. I tried GetHashCode() but that doesn't work out too well. Any suggestion is apreaciated!!! Thanks

Hi. How can I initialize a FolderBrowserDialog choosing a particular RootFolder? I saw that FolderBrowserDialog has a RootFolder member, but it accepts only an Environment.SpecialFolder (but I don't want to choose a SpecialFolder for my FolderBrowserDialog). I hope I've been clear. Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm trying to display a MessageBox after a FolderBrowserDialog. I see that it gets displayed, but not activated. The form is not in front and when I have some other forms open the MessageBox is hidden behind them. The problem seems to occur only after using the FolderBrowserDialog. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks
