Are you sure the error number is 2312? It is not listed in MSI help.

Look at the Custom Setup dialog to see how it is done.

There is a BrowseDlg in the standard UI.  If you launch that dialog with your pushbutton, then the behavior of the BrowseDlg should be what you want.  It takes the default path and displays drive and folder selections as well as an edit box.  The user can select the path or type it into the edit field.  When the user clicks OK, the dialog executes a SetTargetPath action and returns to the calling dialog.

Steve,
I am using that std. dialog but for getting that dialog I put Browse button in another dialog..n when i click that browse button instead poping up Brows Dialog..it will show some error message.
and sorry error no. is  Inrenal Error : 2343

I think the issue is with passing the _BrowseProperty to the BrowseDlg.  I think what is needed is to tie the path you want to change to that temporary property at the time you launch the BrowseDlg.  Then use the final control action on the original dialog to set the path variable to what the browser returns.

I will do a bit of testing on this and make another post once I have got it nailed down a bit better.  I'm kinda' pressed for time at the moment.  :-)
