Select Folder Path with savefileDialog
Check the FolderBrowserDialog
// Bring up a dialog to chose a folder path in which to open or save a file.
private void folderMenuItem_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
var folderBrowserDialog1 = new FolderBrowserDialog();
// Show the FolderBrowserDialog.
DialogResult result = folderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog();
if( result == DialogResult.OK )
{
string folderName = folderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath;
... //Do your work here!
}
}
Though an old question,
I didn't like that uglyFolderBrowserDialog
, so here's a trick that worked for me, it uses the SaveFileDialog
// Prepare a dummy string, thos would appear in the dialog
string dummyFileName = "Save Here";
SaveFileDialog sf = new SaveFileDialog();
// Feed the dummy name to the save dialog
sf.FileName = dummyFileName;
if(sf.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
// Now here's our save folder
string savePath = Path.GetDirectoryName(sf.FileName);
// Do whatever
}
