List of File Names in a folder

[Brad]

Thanks for taking the time to read my question.

I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to populate a
combo box with a list of files from a specific user
chosen folder.

Thanks so much!

Brad

P.S. I have a way for the user to choose the folder.
(Code Below)

Thanks to Terry Kreft for the code...

strFolderName = BrowseFolder("Select the folder where you
want the file to be saved.")
