Hi Benoit,

The source of GetDir() is also a part of the library. Here is the extract from the Toolkit for implementing GetDir().
[Note: GetDir() was a tricky one because it is not implemented as a part of the .NET Framework classes]

Hope this helps,
Kamal

Imports System.Design
Imports System.Windows.Forms.Design

Public Class dialogs
	'<example>
	'Dim MyDir As String
	'MyDir = GetDir()
	'If Not Empty(MyDir) Then
	'   'Do something
	'End If
	'</example>
	Public Shared Function GetDir() As String
	    Return GetDir("")
	End Function

	Public Shared Function GetDir(ByVal tcTitle As String) As String
	    'The GetDirBrowser is a class developed in VFPToolkitNET and is not a
	    'built in .NET Framework class
	    Dim db As GetDirBrowser = New GetDirBrowser()
	    Return db.ShowIt(tcTitle)
	End Function

	' A special treatement for the GetDir() as it was not a built 
	' in as a .NET Framework class
	Private Class GetDirBrowser
	    Inherits FolderNameEditor
	    ' inherit the FolderNameEditor class
	    Dim fBrowser As FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser

	    Public Sub New()
		' contructor
		' create an instance of FolderBrowser
		fBrowser = New System.Windows.Forms.Design.FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser()
	    End Sub

	    Public Function ShowIt(ByVal textdescription As String) As String
		' set the Description label		
		fBrowser.Description = textdescription
		fBrowser.ShowDialog() ' show the Windows 
		Return fBrowser.DirectoryPath ' return whatever path choosen
	    End Function

	End Class
End Class
