File Open Control

[abe6162]

Is there anyway to put a file open control in Access. I need to let my user open a file and I don't them to type in the directory the file is in.

Take a look at thread705-919742. Ed2020 provides the info and only asks that you don't feed the trolls.

You can also use the Common Dialog Control, but all machines may not have that.
