browse files in access 2000

[atray04]

I have been trying to have a button on my form that when clicked will open a windows dialog so that I can browse files and select a image to add to my form. What I have found out is that the easy ways of doing this are in access 2002 and up. So it looks like the way to do this is with an activex control. I can not seem to find the right code for doing this. Does anyone know how I would do this?

The Common Open Dialog is the thing that you want, and it's easy in A2k too

Thank you, I have alreeady looked at those posts and I kept on getting the error library not found. I decided to use a bound object frame and link my pictures that way. This seems to be the easiest approach.
