  Yes.. except that it does not allow me to pick a folder name. i.e, if I click
on  "Open", it will not close and return the name of the folder, it actually
naigates the folder contents.. that is not what I want.

  All I want is to let the user select a folder, then I will process that
folder. There seems to be no way to do that.
 
  The widget is too cumbersome for simple tasks, so I am wandering if it was
designed for that in the first place.

  Thanks for the reply.
