folderbrowserdialog

I have created an application compiled with .NET 3.5. and used the FolderBrowserDialog object. When a button is pressed i execute this code:

FolderBrowserDialog fbd = new FolderBrowserDialog (); fbd.ShowDialog();

A Folder dialog is showed but i can't see any folders. The only thing i see are the buttons OK & Cancel (and create new folder button when the ShowNewFolderButton properyty is set to true). When i try the exact same code on a different form everything is working fine. Any ideas??
