MS Word Macro

[mmikedm1000]

I am trying to create a Macro in MS Word that will open up a window that is
located:

Insert
Object
Create From File
Browse

The keyboard shortcuts are ctl 'I', 'O', ctl 'F', ctl 'B'

The 'record macro' does not work; it needs to be coded with VB. I am not
sure how to do this. How do I code the macro to open the window. Any help
would be appreciated.

I don't think you can do it directly, but you can give the impression of
doing it ...

With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)
.AllowMultiSelect = False
If .Show = 0 Then Exit Sub
PickedFile = .SelectedItems(1)
End With
With Dialogs(wdDialogInsertObject)
.Tab = 1
.FileName = PickedFile
.Show
End With

This will not work prior to XP. It can be done a different way but it's a
bit more long winded.
