Larry,

If you're using VFP 7.0, the GETDIR() function now has flags that you can use. This function now directly maps to SHBrowseForFolder.

If you're using a previous version, there are two alternatives. Under Win95B with IE 4.01 having been installed, or Win98 or later, the Shell.Application object exposes this functionality. I wrote about it in the VFUG newsletter sometime ago. The article is available on-line at www.vfug.org. Click on my name and check my resume to find out the exact issue.

Ed Rauh, I think, wrote an FAQ on SHBrowseForFolder that's available here.
