Hi everyone

I am using the Application.FileDialog method to prompt a user to select a folder:

Code:
Function GetFolderPath(MyTitle As String) As String
'Browse for target folder
    Dim folderDialog As FileDialog
    Set folderDialog = Application.FileDialog(4)
    With folderDialog
        .Title = MyTitle
    End With
    folderDialog.AllowMultiSelect = False
    folderDialog.Show
    
    GetFolderPath = folderDialog.SelectedItems(1)
End Function

Is there an option to prevent the user from creating a "New Folder" and then selecting that one? Something on the lines of folderDialog.AllowExisting = False?

Thanks in advance
