[DUG] File/Dir Open at "My Computer"

[John Bird]

Well it is what I was looking for but I probably won’t use it as it is incredibly ugly – as in it has Windows 3.1 look.   Is this really the most modern version of selecting a drive I can use on Windows 7?

John,

the TDriveCombobox should do the trick.

  I want to bring up a dialog to select a drive (Will be usually a removable USB drive).   Can I do this with any of the standard Delphi TOpenDialog or SelectDirectory etc?

  Ideally I want to bring up a dialog starting at My Computer...(D2007)

  [Aside - I know how to show My Computer by starting Windows Explorer:

  To start with my computer:

  explorer.exe /n,/e,/select, c:\

  To start with desktop:

  %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,%USERPROFILE%\Desktop

  – it can show the drive but doesn’t return the drive letter to Delphi as it comes up as a separate process of course]
