    Browse for File to open

    Hi again

    Is it possible to call a file open window from VBA? That is, allow the user to browse for the file that they wish to open then same way that you can by selecting File-Open from the tools menu?

    I need to do this as the files the macro runs on could be anywhere, but they will be .txt files that I then load in with certain settings etc.

    At present people have to save the file in a specific folder, from which the program can identify it, but I would ideal like this not to be necessary.
