Hi all

I have a file add-in which I have linked to a menu command, the command opens a text file and loads it into excel adn reformats it.

My question is can I add checkboxes onto the default file open dialog? i.e. at the bottom of the dialog box, I would like to have a group of toggle boxes?

Anyone know what I'm talking about? And if you do any idea how it can be done?

Thanks in advance
 
bob,

You can't modify the default file open dialog. However, you could build your own, I suppose.

And what's a "toggle box"? There are Toggle Buttons, Option Buttons, Check Boxes to name some controls.

i dunno what a toggle box is either!! ;)

toggle buttons was the one I was after!

hmm, i thought that might be the answer, quite a lot of work I guess to build my own!

Thanks for the answer

Bob
