form browse tool

[Ray Wallace]

Hi,
I am new to MS Access Forms.
I want my form to insert the path of a file by allowing the user of the form
to click a browse button and find the file instead of having to enter in the
full path of the file or copy and paste the file.

Thanks in advance.

Here is a site where you can get the code you need to do an API call to the
windows common dialog box. It looks just like every other windows
application open or save file browser. It will allow the user to navigate to
a desired file and once selected, will return the full path and file name:
