Is there still no way to browse a Network Neighborhood with the default WindowsInstaller functionality? Currently the user would need to map a drive before being able to see anything on the network.

You can enter a UNC path in the PathEdit control, but you cannot browse the Network Neighborhood (as far as I know), except with a custom action (DLL or InstallScript for instance)

Is there a repository of examples of the solutions came up with here? I'd love to see an example of what others are doing to solve this (I'm sure others have struggled with this)
I'd love to see either the CA or a DLL others may have come up with
THANKS!
