 Browsing Net Hood

Two part question re VB6:

a) how, though VB, can I browse network Neighborhood similarly to how the
FileSystemObject can be used to traverse loca drives.

b) I've noticed that some applications use a Browse Directory dialog box
control that presents the directory in tree view, includes (usually) the
Network Neighborhood, and allows the user to select a dir.  What is this
control?  Can it be easily used in VB?

The "Resource" section on the site below shows..
NetNeighborhood
"This VB 6 Project that allows a sort of Network Neighborhood browsing
capability. Not much point to it as it's unfinished, but it shows how to use
those two APIs to enumerate systems on the network. Works on Windows 9x as
well as NT (most Net APIs do not)."
