Multiple File Select?

I can't seem to figure out how to present the user with a file dialog that will allow them to select multiple folders out of those present in a current directory. Does anyone know how to/have some code that will do this?

I don't know of a straight forward method.

Check out this info from the Developer Zone: Multiple-file Select Dialog Box

DESCRIPTION:  "This VI calls a Windows API dll which pops up a multiple-file select dialog box. The title input is a string and will appear at the top of the dialog box. The file type list is a two column string table containing file type pairs. Each pair consists of what string will be displayed in the file type drop-down box on the dialog box and a string of the file extension in the form "*.*". The VI returns a list box containing the absolute paths of all files selected as strings, as well as the number of files selected. "
