    Red face I feel really, really dumb, but...

    I've got Office 2k installed, with VB 6 Pro over that... I'm finally at the point where it would be easier to use commondialogue ... but I go to "Tools" and "additional controls" is greyed out. How the heck do I get it ? :

    Dontcha love it when smart people have dumb questions?

    It appears that you are in the VBA editor of one of the Office
    applications. If you start VB and Click on "Project"
    > "Components" then you can select the additional controls you
    want for the VB project.

    If you are indeed trying to develop in the VBA editor then go
    to "Insert" > "User Form" and click. Then you will see the toolbox
    appear along with a form. Then go to "Tools" > "Additional
    Controls" and select "Microsoft Common Dialog Control version
    x.x" and it will appear in your toolbox.
