Bill and Karen,

I believe this might be what I am looking for.
I will try it later today.
Thanks.

James

As Karen suggested you could try the treeview control to display the
directory of S:\BLEACHER_BUILD\

Or you could use the File Listbox control and set the default directory
to
S:\BLEACHER_BUILD\

You can only see directories or files with these controls. If you want
to do
something  with the files, then do as Karen suggests and use the plugins
for
LoadFileNamePlus or LoadDirectoryname.

In any code make sure to return to the default directory using
(CVAL('DBPATH')).

Here is some sample code;

Set v vcurrdir text=(cval('dbpath'))

set v vFILE text=null
PLUGINS LoadFileNamePlus vFile +
 |FULLPATH ON +
 |TITLE Bleacher Information +
 |VIEW_MODE DETAILS +
 |FILTER Excel Files (*.xls)#*.xls +
 |INITIAL_DIR S:\BLEACHER_BUILD\ +
 |MULTISELECT OFF +
 |NO_LONG_NAMES OFF
...more code
CHDIR .VCURRDIR
ret     


Hope this helps.

I want to use a bit button on a form that will bring me to a specific
location on the hard drive.

I want it to show me a window so my office people can see the folders
and
files in that location.

Kind of like a shortcut on a form to a specific location.

The location will be S:\BLEACHER_BUILD\.
