I have a document based application that needs to be able to open folders.

Generic folders (folders as folders)? Or document packages (special folders treated as a single document)?

Either way, you need to declare your application's support for the proper document type. See: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Documents/Concepts/DocTypePList.html

For the former, you would use the OSType 'fold' and/or the UTI "public.folder" (kUTTypeFolder).

For the latter, you would declare your own custom extension for the package and indicate that it is a package type (LSTypeIsPackage).

Cheers,
