Thanks Larry - that did the trick.

>If you change the oFilePick.Show line to oFilePick.Show(1), the form will be modal and stop execution until the user exits the form. If you need to return a value then you could modify the cmdSelect button to Hide the form (not release it). Execution will continue at that point and after you retrieve the value(s) you want from the oFilePick controls, release the form.
