SelectDirectory object?

[Dave]

Is there something like the OpenFileDialog that just allows selection of a
directory? It's probably easy to code from scratch, but I'm too lazy for
that if there's something there already...

Thanks

VS.NET 2003 contains a BrowseForFolder dialog. Earlier versions required
a homegrown solution. Use Google to find more information on the
subject.
