HtmlInputFile, FTP, and Browsing

Hi all,

I'm developing an application for a company to allow their clients to
transfer large volumes of data to our production servers.

I looked at using the HtmlInputFile control to handle the upload via
secure http, but while it supports a large limit with changes made to
maxRequestLength (max 2 gigs according to Microsoft Knowledge Base
Article 295626), the files our system may be receiving could be larger
than that.

I'm looking at using an FTP tool instead. Basically, I need to create
a "file browser" type dialog similar to the one provided by
HtmlInputFile to allow the client to select files. Is there a way to
allow browsing of the files on a client computer using something other
than the HtmlInputFile control?

Thanks in advance,
Tim Chandler
