Hi,

I am getting open file dialog box and able to select the file but I am not able to open the file. After selecting file when I click on open ,dialog box is closed and file is not open.could someone please let me know where I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance

The dialoug acts like a function, with the file selected as a return value.

You have to tell it what to do next.

Something like the followhyperlink action to open the file.

How are ya vani65 . . . . .

I believe you talking the [blue]Common Dialog Control[/blue] (correct me if I'm wrong).

In either case, have a look at the [purple]Shell Function[/purple].

See Ya! . . . . . .
