Default Browser Functions Problem

Dear people,
I used the code since last year. But today now I really had a problem with
it. Please help me.

The code begin with:-
Private Const BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS As Long = &H1
Private Const BIF_DONTGOBELOWDOMAIN As Long = &H2
Private Const BIF_RETURNFSANCESTORS As Long = &H8
Private Const BIF_BROWSEFORCOMPUTER As Long = &H1000
Private Const BIF_BROWSEFORPRINTER As Long = &H2000
Private Const BIF_BROWSEINCLUDEFILES As Long = &H4000
Private Const MAX_PATH As Long = 260

Type BrowseInfo
hOwner As Long
pidlRoot As Long
pszDisplayName As String
lpszINSTRUCTIONS As String
ulFlags As Long
lpfn As Long
lParam As Long
iImage As Long
End Type

Type SHFILEOPSTRUCT
hwnd As Long
wFunc As Long
pFrom As String
pTo As String
fFlags As Integer
fAnyOperationsAborted As Boolean
hNameMappings As Long
lpszProgressTitle As String
End Type

Declare Function SHGetPathFromIDListA Lib "shell32.dll" ( _
ByVal pidl As Long, _
ByVal pszBuffer As String) As Long

Declare Function SHBrowseForFolderA Lib "shell32.dll" ( _
lpBrowseInfo As BrowseInfo) As Long


Function BrowseFolder(Optional Caption As String = "") As String

Dim BrowseInfo As BrowseInfo
Dim FolderName As String
Dim ID As Long
Dim Res As Long

With BrowseInfo
.hOwner = 0
.pidlRoot = 0
.pszDisplayName = String$(MAX_PATH, vbNullChar)
.lpszINSTRUCTIONS = Caption
.ulFlags = BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS
.lpfn = 0
End With

FolderName = String$(MAX_PATH, vbNullChar)

ID = SHBrowseForFolderA(BrowseInfo)

If ID Then
Res = SHGetPathFromIDListA(ID, FolderName)
If Res Then
BrowseFolder = Left$(FolderName, InStr(FolderName, _
vbNullChar) - 1)
End If
End If
End Function

'The following code should bring the popup folder browser:-
Sub OpenMyBrowser()
Dim FName, SUBDIR, ROOTDIR As String
FName = BrowseFolder("Testing")
If FName = "" Then
End
Else
End If
'procceed next code here
End Sub

I have test the code using different operating system and works fine!
But not in my computer. I'm using WindowsXP sp2 and Office2003.

Thanks in advance.
Jaemun.
