Allow the user to select a folder

Hi all,

I have a requirement, where the user has to select a folder and all the
files in that folder have to be imported to my databse.
To acheive this i need a control which enables the user to select only a
"FOLDER", and does not expect the user to select a file.

When "html - fileInput" or "asp:FileUpload" is used, these controls do not
accept a selected folder and expects a single file to be selected.

My environment:

Framework: Visual Studio 2005
Technology: ASP.NET 2.0
Language: C#.NET 2.0
Thanks in advance,
Kuldeep

There is no way unless you want to try some ActiveX.
