mdb

Greetings,

If I want to bring up a browse dialog box where only .mdb files are available for selection, what do I need to say. Better yet, is there any code anyone can send me so I can paste it in and try it out?

The even to call it will be a button click called cmdAccess.

Obviously, the idea is that when they click on the button, they can browse for a Microsoft Access Database.

Thank you,
Jim

Alright, alright, just to show I'm not being a total mooch with that last question, I have this so far, below. How do I make it so that it defaults to mdb type files, or better yet, how do I make so that ONLY mdb files can be presented?
Thank you,
Jim

Private Sub cmdAccess_Click()
Dim sAnswer As String
Dim filename As String
Dim F As Integer
CommonDialog1.ShowOpen
filename = CommonDialog1.filename
F = FreeFile
If filename <> "" And Len(Dir(filename)) <> 0 Then
Open filename For Input As #F
'txtFile.Text = Input$(LOF(F), F)
txtFile.Text = filename
Close #F
End If
End Sub

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdAccess_Click()
    'Need this in case user clicks cancel
    On Error GoTo cdlg_err
    
    'Setup the common dialog control and show the open file dialog
    With CommonDialog1
        .DialogTitle = "Microsoft Access Files"
        .DefaultExt = ".mdb"
        .Filter = "Microsoft Access Files|*.mdb"
        .ShowOpen
    End With
 
    Exit Sub
 
cdlg_err:
 
    'Check to see if the cancel button generated the error,
    'if not, show the error message
    If Err.Number <> cdlCancel Then
        MsgBox "Error #" & Err.Number & vbCrLf & Err.Description
    End If
    
    Exit Sub
    
End Sub

You are THEE man!!!! (assuming you are indeed a man. Just can't picture a woman putting that for her picture.)

Thanks again!!!
Jim
