How to list directories in VBA for Autocad?

[Anonymous]

In VB there is a DriveListBox control, DirListBox control and a FileListBox
control but not in VBA for AutoCAD. So how do I show drives, directories
like in those controls for VB?

You can create a user control in VB and build it as an OCX file to give
yourself access to these controls in VBA. I've done this before with the
DriveListBox.

Go to Frank O's site http://www.acadx.com, or for the code http://code.acadx.com/ and download there the class CommonDialog.cls.

If use it then it will give you access via WindowsAPI's to the Open File and Save file dialog boxes and also to the Browseforfolder dialog.

Good Luck
