I realise it doesn't answer your question about changing the label text but
what if you use the following:

   JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
    chooser.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
    int ret = chooser.showDialog(this, "Select Directory");

Using the "showDialog()" method instead of "showOpenDialog()" allows you to
pass text which replaces the text on the "Open" button and Dialog title.
Setting this to "Select Directory" I think makes it more obvious for your
user.
