>Basically, you can use SET DEFAULT TO (< path >) to control the initial directory GETFILE() displays. Of course, this involves getting the current default, changing it, then restoring it. It's probably easier to use the Common Dialogs ActiveX control, which has an InitDir property that it will use. IMO, it also gives you more control over the dialog than either GETFILE() or PUTFILE().

This sounds like what I need because I don't really want to change my active directory. I've never used the Common Dialogs activeX control. Where would I find this and is there any documentation available? Thanks again.
