In addition to Cetin's fine suggestions, you could also use the Microsoft Common Dialog control to display a standard dialog which will return multi-selected files.

>>I have a running VFP6 app which allows the user to select a file using GETFILE. Now my customer wants to be able to select multiple files using shift or control - the normal windows multiple file select. Does anyone have a recommendation? Can GETFILE be configured to allow multiple selects? Is there another choice?

>If they're on same dir you could just use a listbox with rowsourcetype files and multiselect .t.
>If not you could use GetFile() in a loop till it returns an empty string and add each selected to a grid, listbox to show.
>You could use a treeview with checkboxes, populate it with files as well as dirs (for fast building check UT magazine 1st issue).
>You could gather dirs+files to a cursor and use a multiselect control (listbox or MultiselectGrid class).
