I think that's a type-o and you meant SelectDirectory which
has 2 formats depending on the params that you pass. One is
indeed a wrapper for SHBrowseForFolder but it doesn't permit
you to set the ulFlags member.

I couldn't even get it create a new folder, let alone change
the folder name.

No. However, there is a button which allows you to create a
new folder using the default name "New Folder" which can then
be changed by right clicking it and selecting Rename from the
popup menu. Then the 'New Folder' name goes into the edit mode
just like it does in WindowsExplorer.

Keep in mind that you have to call SHBrowseForFolder directly
to get this effect.
