Gordon, You will need to add the "Microsoft Common Dialog Control" to your Project\components. Take that component and add it to the form leave the default name "CommonDialog1". Add a textbox to the form called txtReturn. Add a ccommand button named cmdDialog. Insert the following code and POOF you have full access.
Private Sub cmdDialog_Click()
    CommonDialog1.DialogTitle = "Select return to load" 'dlgReturnSelect
    CommonDialog1.Filter = "All Files (*.*)|*.*"
    CommonDialog1.FilterIndex = 0
    ' The following sets the default start dir.
    'CommonDialog1.InitDir = g_strMainName & g_strToPrintPath
    CommonDialog1.Flags = cdlOFNExplorer
    CommonDialog1.ShowOpen
    ' Get the selection.
    txtReturn.Text = CommonDialog1.filename
End Sub

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animated contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsel or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
~Samuel Adams
