How can i open a file directory with through Windows Explorer with C#?I mean i know how to open the Windows Explorer but the default directory is my documents.I want to be different directory...How to do this?

Use the OpenFile Dialog to open files.

Something like this:

OpenFileDialog dlgOpenReciprocityFile = new OpenFileDialog ( );dlgOpenReciprocityFile.InitialDirectory = @"C:\";

dlgOpenReciprocityFile.Filter = "text Files (*.txt)|*.txt|All Files (*.*)|*.*";

dlgOpenReciprocityFile.FilterIndex = 1;

dlgOpenReciprocityFile.RestoreDirectory = true;if ( dlgOpenReciprocityFile.ShowDialog ( ) == DialogResult.Cancel )

{

comboStateList.Visible = false;

this.labelCurrentStatus.Text = "Ready . . .";

ResetButtons ( true, false, true );

dlgOpenReciprocityFile.Dispose ( );

}

else

{

try

{

//* initialize the file path variable

fileControl.m_InFilePath = dlgOpenReciprocityFile.FileName; //* open the file

fi_inputFile = new FileInfo ( fileControl.m_InFilePath ); //* create a text reader

srReciprocityReader = fi_inputFile.OpenText ( );

}

{
