[Wade Arnold]

Just wanted to close this for archive reasons. The feature of 
fl.browseForFolderURL is available in flash8

Availability

Flash 8.

Usage
fl.browseForFolderURL( [ description ] )


Parameters

description An optional string that specifies the description of the 
Browse For Folder dialog box. If this parameter is omitted, nothing is 
shown in the description area.

Returns

The URL of the folder, expressed as a file:///URI; returns null if the 
user cancels out of the dialog box.

Description

Method; displays a Browse For Folder dialog box and lets the user 
select a folder.

Note: The title of the dialog box will always be “Browse For Folder.” 
Use the description parameter to add more detail in the description 
area underneath the title, such as "Select a folder" or "Select the 
path that contains the profile you want to import."

Example

The following example lets the user select a folder and then displays a 
list of files in that folder.
var folderURI = fl.browseForFolderURL("Select a folder.");
var folderContents = FLfile.listFolder(folderURI);
