If you are using Java 6, the best way to do this is to use Desktop:

Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File(path));

In Windows (XP/Vista) the following code will work:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("explorer /select,  " + folder);

I would advise against this .getRuntime()... approach if you have a large application. This approach forks the process, so if you are running this from a large program (e.g., within an application server) the fork can eat up your entire available RAM.
