Try these two files if it needs to be done in CF.  The second one goes
through sub folders creating nodes on the CFTree recursively.  I wrote them
so feel free to send me questions

directoryTree.cfm
----------------------------------
<cfset startFolder = "C:\whatever">

<cfdirectory directory="#startFolder#" name="folderList">
        
        <cfoutput>
        <cfform action="foo" method="post">
                <cftree name="folders" completepath="no" required="yes"
message="You must choose a folder to continue" width="400">
                        <cftreeitem value="#startfolder#"
img="folderClosed.gif" imgopen="folderOpen.gif" expand="yes">
                        <cf_folderList folderPath="#startFolder#">
                </cftree>       
                <br>
                <br>
                <input type="submit" name="letsGo" value="     GO!     ">
                </cfform>
        </cfoutput>
----------------------------------

folderList.cfm
-----------------------------
<CFDIRECTORY DIRECTORY="#attributes.folderPath#" NAME="folders">

<cfoutput query="folders" startrow="3">
        <cfif type IS "dir">
                <cftreeitem parent="#attributes.folderPath#"
value="#attributes.folderPath#\#name#" display="#name#"
img="folderClosed.gif" imgopen="folderOpen.gif" expand="no">
                <cf_folderList folderPath="#attributes.folderPath#\#name#">
        </cfif>
</cfoutput>
-----------------------------

hi fellow cf'ers! hope everyone is doing good <ok enough chit chat>
i need to build an interface for file/directory browsing/selection that will
let the user select a file off the server...like the one in the CF
Administrator that can be used when you select your DSN...
any tips on which tag(s) to use would be most appreciated.
