Multi-select files using Open File dialog API..?

[Bloodeye]

I would like to fill a listbox with files using the Open File dialog API. Anyone have code for doing this?

[Bloodeye]

Nobody has any code using the GetOpenFileName API along with multi-select and then filling a listbox with the selected file names?.....Hmmmmm.
