mso.dll for filedialog

M

Mark Andrews

I added some functionality in an Access 2003 db to allow user to select
multiple files using Ctrl in a filedialog.

It works fine but the reference sometimes causes an issue (some users don't
have Office 2003 etc...).

What's the best way to handle the reference to MSO.DLL? Can I copy that one
file and put it in system32 etc...?

Thanks in advance,
Mark

The code I am using is something like this:

Dim fd As FileDialog

'Create a FileDialog object as a File Picker dialog box.
Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)

Would you be able to point me at the multi-select example. I don't see what
flag is changed to allow multi-select?

I believe this was the code I was using and I only switched so I could get
multiple select. Hopefully it was just a
bad decision on my part.

Simple answer - don't use the filedialog. Use this instead:

No versioning problems or any of that... and you can use multi-select
too.. (there's an example on the site)
