>>>I've been trying to write a form that will allow a user to select multiple datafiles and store them in an array. I'm using a listbox to display the selected files and I have an add button that uses getfile() and AINS to insert the selected file into the array. AINS is working, but after I refresh the control or the entire form, the listbox only displays the number of elements that the form started with. The array is updated and if I quit the form then come back all of the elements are there. Initially I had the numberofelements set to =alen(ArrayName), that did not work, so I tried hard coding it to 30 and that did not work. Any ideas?

Hi Marvin,

Just a suggestion. Rather than GETFILE(), I'd use the Common Dialogs ActiveX control's ShowOpen method. The flags property of this control will allow the user to select multiple files in the same directory with a single call.
