Open File Dialog Box (JS)

Question

I know that in order to open a file dialog box and get a file I have to use this code:
myFile = File(File.openDialog("Import XML","XML Files: *.xml"))
This is what I use to open XML files. Now I want to be able to open a folder based on the label of the textFrame. I can get the label and build the file path. How can I open a dialog box that already points to a specific folder? Also, how can I check with the script if there are files within the folder?
Thanks,
Justin M.

>How can I open a dialog box that already points to a specific folder?
var myFolder=Folder("/C/XYZ");
var myMask="INDD:*.indd";
var myFile=myFolder.openDlg("Select Files To Open", myMask, true);
>Also, how can I check with the script if there are files within the folder?
var myFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Please select path to files");
if (myFolder!=null) {
var fileList = myFolder.getFiles();
alert("The selected folder contains " + fileList.length + " files.");
