Seems that there is not FileDialog() method available in
Outlook's Application object.

Is there something, like a reference to an object
library, that I need to set?

Get the following sample form and look at the code:

It shows how to reuse Internet Explorer to display an "Open File" dialog.

Appreciate it. Checked out your website too!

Actually I was planning to use FileDialog() to pick a
folder. It didn't exactly do what I wanted, so I decided
to use the Windows API functions SHBrowseForFolder() and
SHGetPathFromIDList() which displays the 'standard'
folder picker. Exactly what I wanted to do: select a
folder, get the full path.

Thanks again.
