Ok, I know this sounds pathetic, but I have forgotten how to use my Common Dialog Box and I need someone to send some sample code!!! Any way you can help...
 
Here is a sample that I snarfed from one of my picture programs. Slightly compressed on this small note pad but perhaps it will help.
RSH


Public Sub AllPictures() 'This opens a file via Common dialog box
On Error GoTo Cancel 'Set(Cancel Error) to true in properties window
CommonDialog1.DialogTitle = "CHOOSE A FILE TO OPEN" 'Title for Dialog Box
CommonDialog1.InitDir = Route 'More page 357 Black Book"
CommonDialog1.Filter = "IMAGE FILES(*.jpg, *.bmp)|*.jpg;*.bmp|ALL FILES (*.*)|*.*"
CommonDialog1.ShowOpen 'Show Dialog box for open
Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(CommonDialog1.FileName)
Call ButtonsOff
GoTo PassCancel
Cancel: Call ButtonsOn
PassCancel:
Route = CommonDialog1.FileName 'This brings common dialog back to originally selected page unless changed
End Sub
