c# Save file directory

Question

I want a user to pick a directory to save image files too. I'm new to c#, I've got the image thing working with OpenFileDialog, how would I do the directory thing.

Basically, I want it to look like:

Save Directory: C:\PATH....

Maybe a FolderBrowserDialog or OpenDirectoryDialog?

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Use the FolderBrowserDialog to select a folder, or use the SaveFileDialog to pick an individual file for saving.

Here is a codeplex.com example of using FolderBrowserDialog:

Answer 2

you want the SaveFileDialog.

Answer 3

Use a FolderBrowserDialog. Here's an example:

FolderBrowserDialog brwsr = new FolderBrowserDialog();

//Check to see if the user clicked the cancel button
if (brwsr.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Cancel)
    return;
else
{
    newDirectoryPath = brwsr.SelectedPath;
    //Do whatever with the new path
}
