name of a file

[Dirk Van waes]

Hello,
I have a button on a form. When I click the button, I want a form with all
the maps and files of my computer(like the open-window of windows) from
which I can select a file.The name of the file must come in a textbox, I
don't want to open the file.
How do I manage that?
TIA
Dirk

Hi Dirk

You can call the Windows file open window directly. It will do just what
you want. See http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm for some code that
you can just copy, paste, and use.
