Thanks for your reply, and sorry for late reply...

Using browser dialog for files will be good, but will not be for the folders, because i want to selected multi folders...

You can't do it with the same (standard) dialog! You need to use OpenFileDialog[^] to browse for files and FolderBrowserDialog[^] to browse for folders. Why? Read this discusion[^].

You can achive this writing custom dialog using CheckedListBox[^], but the implementation of listing fiels and dirs belongs to you ;)
