Returning the button pressed from a FolderBrowserDialog

Greetings,

I have the following code in a VB.NET Windows application and was
wondering if there is any way to determine whether or not the user
pressed the "Cancel" button on the FolderBrowerseDialog?

Me.FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog()

I tried dimensioning "x" as a boolean variable and using the statement
below, but it returned "true" regardless of what button was pressed.
Any ideas?

x = Me.FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog()

Thanks in advance!
