"All files"

[MC]

I currently hyperlink PDF files to records within a database. When actioning
a hyperlink, a "Link to file" box appears, the bottom "Files of Type"
dialog shows "Office Files". I have to change this everytime to "All Files"
so that files can be associated with the PDF.

Is there a solution for the PDF files to become the default?

Use the API found at

http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm

to call your file dialog. As you will see you can control your strFilter to
control which file types to display/filter.
