??? Invalid use of property ? [resolved]

Ok, this really is strange, i cannot compile any code thta uses the .Filter attribute of the commonDialog control... thing is i used to be able too...

VB Code:

CD.Filter "*.Txt|Text Files"

that code throws up the error... and i have tried

VB Code:

With CD
          .Filter = "*.txt|Text Files"
End With

(and yes my control is called CD)

Any Help ?

Trye this instead:

CD.Filter = "Text (*.txt)|*.txt"

ok, that worked, thanks mate :)

Tghing is i had a previously compiled version of it and it worked :-P
maybe the addition of Option Explicit prompted it ?

Yes, Option Explicit is your friend!

Yey, i have a new friend :-P

Thanks mate :) [resolved]
