Hi,

I am putting together a fairly straight forward Access application for admin file management. One of the features I am trying to implement is to be able to hyperlink to documents.

I can make the link work - no problem there.

What I am after is a way for the user to be able to use a dialog box which allows users to navigate through the network, select their file and thereafter have the path and filename appear as the field contents. I'm not trying to navigate through and open a document, just take note of it's properties.

I've google'd and MSDN'd my heart out today and I'm hoping that you guys can help me out.

TIA

Sam in Adelaide, SA
