1st post here, hope this goes okay...

I've never used Access before, but I've been tasked with modifing an
accessDB, which I think I've sucessfully done. However, I've used 2003, and
the client is using either 2000. Testing the code it appears that the
FileDilog type is new to Office11, and consquently I get a compile error
trying create an unknown type.

Having had a quick google it appears that I need to use API calls. Is the
code on this web page the sort of thing I need?

It's new to Office 10, actually -- Access 2002.

That's exactly the sort of thing you need. Let us know if you have any
trouble adapting it your needs.
