Rueben,

Also do a look up FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker). You will also need to
set a reference to Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library.

You can set an  AllowMultiSelect  property for sure.

=====Reuben, have you tested it? The capability might already be there. The 
native Open dialogs will let you choose more than one file by holding down 
the Ctrl key and clicking the files you want to open. Or, you can hold down 
the Shift key and press the first and last files to select a contiguous 
block of files.

The common dialog might provide the same feature.
