Hi
I was wondering is there a way that i could provide the user with a browse button to browse their hard drive for a particular file they would like to import into access. At the moment i have assigned a folder that can import their files from, however some of them would like to browse their whole hard drives.
Thanks

You could use a common dialog control to achieve what you are after.

A quick search turned up several results including thread705-946936

This thread not only contains alot about common dialogs but an alternative solution (and link to it) from a post by RoyVidar.

Hope this helps
