Need a dialog box to browse computers on a network

The FolderBrowserDialog does allow me to browse computers on the network, but it displays other unnecessary folders (I don't want local 开发者_运维知识库folders). Also, I don't want to have to select a folder - just the computer name.

Simple:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var folderName = GetNetworkFolders(new FolderBrowserDialog());    
}

private string GetNetworkFolders(FolderBrowserDialog oFolderBrowserDialog)
{
    Type type = oFolderBrowserDialog.GetType();
    FieldInfo fieldInfo = type.GetField("rootFolder", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
    fieldInfo.SetValue(oFolderBrowserDialog, 18);
    if (oFolderBrowserDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        return oFolderBrowserDialog.SelectedPath.ToString();
    }
    else
    {
        return "";
    }
}

ComputerBrowser.cs:

    private string _displayName;
    private string _path;

    static ComputerBrowser()
    {

    }

    public bool ShowDialog()

No Filtering

The FolderBrowserDialog has no support for filtering. For example, it is not possible to display only network folders or only shared folders or only folders starting with the string "Documents" or files having a particular extension.

try using the openFileDialog and setup your filters.

The ComputerBrowserDialog

http://discoveringdotnet.alexeyev.org/2008/04/how-to-browse-for-computer-name.html

I tweeked it a bit to behave more like the FolderBrowserDialog (only took a few min). Works just how I want it to.
