ok; well, I had a look at homer, and it does remember for you to pass in a good set of default flags, but in any case (drumroll here), it's in the WE object model! check out commonFileDialog under the script object! Chip

I use the built-in method and it works awesome and provides access to all features. I don't want to relie on Homer for my scripts.

Look at the Script. CommonFileDialog method.

Chip _____ From: David [mailto:eleph...@tele2.no] Sent: Saturday, January 09, 2010 4:02 AM To: Scripting List WE Subject: Open file dialog In a VBScript, is there an easy way, to display an 'Open File' dialog. What I want, is to present the user the chance of choosing the file to open. I want to put him in a standard Windows dialog, like the one you know from Word, or Notepad, or whatever; which leaves you the chance also to browse your folder etc. Is there an instruction to be used, or an object to be put to work? Thanks,
