[AccessD] Open File Dialog - multiple selections One More SimpleQuestion

Mark,

In Access 2002, you can also try FileDialog Object. The code given below will display a dialog box for File Selection. Based upon user's choice, the variable TargetFile will give Full Path of each Selected File.

-------------
Code Start
-------------
Dim fdg as Object, TargetFile As String
Dim SLF As Variant

Set fdg = Application.FileDialog(3)
' Arguments -   1(FileOpen), 2(FileSaveAs), 3(FilePicker), 4(FolderPicker)

With fdg
    .Title = Space(71) & "Select  Source  Files"
    .AllowMultiSelect = True
    If .Show <> 0 Then
        For Each SLF In .selecteditems
            TargetFile = Trim(SLF)
' Note - Take Suitable Action Here On TargetFile
        Next
    End If       ' Show
End With     ' fdg
-------------
Code End
-------------

Regards,
A.D.Tejpal

  In  the example I gave, was  " OpenFile.lpstrFile = String(257, 0)"
  That is large enough for a single file, you will need to enlarge it 
  for multiple files.
