There is a utility that does this on http://www.mlin.net/.  

However I think Joe is asking about the Common Dialog Box to open a file,
which I don't have the code for at the moment :(

I wish I could think of the name of it now, but I used to have a nice little
utility that went into the Send To on the right click menu.  If you went to
a file in Windows Explorer you could right click on it > Send To>clipboard
and the full file path including the file name were saved to the clipboard.
Wish I could find it for you:(

Hello All,

How does anyone have any code examples that results in a dialog box opening
and allows that user to navigate to a specified file and return the path to
the file?
I am pretty sure that it is possible to use windows API calls for something
like this, but I am not very knowledgeable about using API calls.

Thanks!
