Answer 1

To gain access to the posh new Vista folder selection dialog then I believe that you need to either:

1. Use a third party component, or
2. Use the native IFileDialog component.

Option 2 is easy enough using the Windows API CodePack. You need to include the FOS_PICKFOLDERS option. The CodePack comes with lots of examples. I commend it to you.
