o mage to Doug Hennig (I think)

so here is the trick:
close databases
myFIle = GETFILE('XLS', 'SomeFile:', 'Foo') && see image 1
I am not in the right folder so I select the "navigate up" button.
immediately i am presented with another getfile dialog looking for a table

to quote Davy Crockett - I'm not lost, just befuddled and bewildered.

i should have this resolved in another 6 or 7 days but i thought i would share my ignorance with the world.

i am only worried in the short term. once there is a problem, the solution usually presents itself.
