Ed,

Have you looked at the Common Dialog ActiveX control in 6.0? It allows for some customization of the GETFILE() dialog. The function (and PUTFILE()) is actually mapped to functions in the COMDLG32.DLL. This ActiveX control provides an easy way to control some of the properties.

BTW, in 7.0, the FFC has code that deals directly with the functions.
