Solved: Need the Browse window!

[Digger]

Ok so I'm writing a database application that imports a flatfile from a mainframe. I am using a module to import the text file and then I rip it apart and enter the data I need into the table. Rather than define a specific location for the file in the code or have an input box pop up I want to use the Open dialog box to get the user to point to where they placed the flat file they downloaded.

I have done this in VB applications in the past but my vb books are not in the office and my brain is just not working..

As soon as I see it I'll smack my head and go duh!..

But any help would be appreciated!

Try these methods.

API Method

Shell Object Method

Doh!
Sad part is I said the same thing when I went home and looked at my last app. Thanks
