>>In this version of Visual FoxPro (VFP7), GETDIR( ) supports two different dialog boxes. If you provide fewer than three parameters, GETDIR( ) returns the dialog box from earlier versions. If you provide more than two parameters, Visual FoxPro uses the SHBrowseForFolder routine from the Win32 API to provide the dialog.

Sorry...I guess I misunderstood your question. I thought you did not what things like "My Computer" and "Desktop" from showing up in your dialog. If they are not there the user can't pick them.......
