Browse folder using File Dialog

[hariantos]

Hi everyone,

This shouldn't be new, but I couldn't find exactly what I want. I'd like to browse folders (not files!!) on LabVIEW. I've managed to browse files using File Dialog.vi, but is it possible to do the same thing for folders? 

I've come across ways using Library Function Node, but couldn't really understand how it works.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks a lot!

In the same File Dialog window you have the option to configure only the folders and browse.

Hi P@Anand,

Thanks for your fast reply. I already know that feature, but I actually then have to be in the folder, then click "Current Folder".

What I want, is only to click/select the folder and click OK. Something like this:

I have a VI for you. this is the .net shell.browseforfolder method.
