Yes, this is that I have to do.

>However AFAIK also in commnondialogs you get multiple files from a particular directory not from multiple dir and multiple files. If this is true I would prefer native VFP combobox or listbox with files and multiselect over commondialogs (exception might be network browsing - in that case I would still go with shbrowseforfolder + collect items as choosen).

Yes, that's true. You can only select multiple files from one directory...

Hope I'm wrong and this is only my personal preference :)

I used it because of its simplicity... Though it's not hard to create a special class, like you described...
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
