    Is there an activex control available that displays a File open dialog with an image preview? I have seen this in several apps including Microsoft Office Products, and Paint shop pro. I suppose if there isn't one available I can look into making one myself, but I wonder if it is worth the trouble.

    look into the GetFileOpen api function, it might be more customizable then the commondialog control

    I have used a filelist box to list the filenames
    and an image box with stretch set to true. I size the image box to a thumbnail image and on click I display the image box with the file selected. Instant thumbnails or
    preview images.
