How To: Add a Custom Place to a File Dialog Box
The default open and save dialog boxes on Windows Vista have an area on the left side of the dialog box titled Favorite Links. This area is called custom places. The xref:System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog and xref:System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog classes allow you to add folders to the xref:System.Windows.Forms.FileDialog.CustomPlaces%2A collection.
Note
In order for a custom place to appear in the xref:System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog or xref:System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog, the xref:System.Windows.Forms.FileDialog.AutoUpgradeEnabled%2A property must be set to
true(the default).
To add a custom place to a file dialog box
-
Add a path, a Known Folder GUID, or a xref:System.Windows.Forms.FileDialogCustomPlace object to the xref:System.Windows.Forms.FileDialog.CustomPlaces%2A collection of the dialog box.
The following code example shows how to add a path:
OpenFileDialog1.CustomPlaces.Add("C:\MyCustomPlace")openFileDialog1.CustomPlaces.Add("C:\\MyCustomPlace");
