Hi,

I'm using DTF to create a custom action to show an Open Folder dialog in my UI.

I'm using the code I found here;
http://todayslearnings.blogspot.com/2008/08/how-to-get-folder-browser-dialog-in-c.html

I can build the project in VisualStudio (after adding a reference to 
Shell32.dll), but when I try to build on the command line I get errors like;

build:
     [exec] Current OS is Windows XP
     [exec] Executing 'C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\csc.exe' with 
arguments:
     [exec] '/target:library'
     [exec] 
'/r:C:\(snip)\WiX\IMPORT\WiXv3/sdk/Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll'
     [exec] 
'/out:C:\(snip)\WiX\Custom_Actions\Categorization\Categorization_CA.dll'
     [exec] 'Categorization_CA.cs'
     [exec]
     [exec] The ' characters around the executable and arguments are
     [exec] not part of the command.
     [exec] Microsoft (R) Visual C# 2008 Compiler version 3.5.30729.1
     [exec] for Microsoft (R) .NET Framework version 3.5
     [exec] Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

     [exec] Categorization_CA.cs(633,17): error CS0246: The type or namespace 
name 'Shell32' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an 
assembly reference?)


I added a reference on my command line, with;
        /r:C:\Windows\System32\Shell32.dll

but this gives a different error;
     [exec] fatal error CS0009: Metadata file 'c:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll' 
could not be opened -- 'An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect 
format. '

Any tips on what I need to successfully compile?

Thanks,
Dale
