Is there some problem with OpenFileDialog

Is there some mental blockage with OpenFileDialog not being
able to navigate to the required directory? What do we do instead?

Hi,

Please explain more fully. Openfiledialog navigates very easily to any
subdirectory on your system, so I don't understand what you are
experiencing.

I am not sure if I understand what you want to do, but maybe setting the
dialog's 'InitialDirectory' property will solve your problem.

probably not know, it doesn't show directories on my
ipaq.
