From MSDN: SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems "Opens a Windows Explorer window with specified items in a particular folder selected". This is the only way I know of to open a Windows Explorer window with *multiple* items selected (either thru API or through command line). There are multiple ways to open an Explorer window with one item selected.
