How can you set the default folder with "PickFolder" method?

I have an application in which the user can identify which contact
folder the user would like my program to read for information.
Allowing the user to identify a contact folder is easy enough using
the Outlook PickFolder method:

Set m_objOutlookFolder = m_objOutlookNameSpace.PickFolder

But the annoying behavior is that it always defaults to Inbox folder
when it first displays the PickFolder form. I would like to have it
default (highlight) the Contact folder that isn't currently selected.
I have searched the web and haven't been able to find an example of
how to do this. Does anyone know if it can be done?

Thanks
 
No, it cannot be done unless you write your own version of the dialog.
