Hi,

is it possible to hide / disable the "create new Folder"-button on the
"browse for folder"-dialog?

Such a flag is not built-in because it requires the "Shell and Common
Controls" version 6.0.

We can add an BIF_NONEWFOLDERBUTTON option to one of the next SB7 builds to
support this. But it will only work with Shell and Common Controls version
6.0 or higher.

So it would work on Win XP and higher. This would be good enough for me.
It should work with Win2000, but MS has confirmed, that there is a
unfixed bug in Shell and Common COntrols 5.0

Hi Friedrich,

it does work under W2k too. See attached screenshot.

According to MSDN, it's only available in Shell32.dll Version 6.

Hi Friedrich,

now I believe to know the difference: You use the
"BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE"-Flag or the "BIF_USENEWUI"-Flag. Then, you are
right. With these flags, you need at least V6.0 to hide the "New
Folder"-button. So I would suggest the following solution (pseudo code)
to hide the "new folder"-button:

if Version of shell32.dll less than 6.0 than
DO NOT SET BIF_USENEWUI, BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE
else
SET BIF_USENEWUI, BIF_NONEWFOLDERBUTTON

What do you think?

This is already implemented in SB8 as an option.
