Commondialog question

[Intensejp]

I am using the CommonDialog and it selects my file fine but if you go to another text box on the form and type some information and happen to hit enter it pulls up the Showopen again? How do I get it to stop doing this?

you must have Focus set to your command button
Posting your code would help one to see what is happening.

Private Sub Command1_Click()
  If Check2 = 0 Then
    
    
    ' Set CancelError is True
    CommonDialog1.CancelError = True
    On Error GoTo ErrHandler
    ' Set flags
    CommonDialog1.Flags = cdlOFNExplorer Or cdlOFNHideReadOnly
    ' Set filters
    CommonDialog1.Filter = "All Files (*.*)|*.*|Text Files" & _
    "(*.txt)|*.txt|Batch Files (*.bat)|*.bat"
    ' Specify default filter
    CommonDialog1.FilterIndex = 1
    ' Display the Open dialog box
    CommonDialog1.ShowOpen
    ' Display name of selected file
    UploadFile = CommonDialog1.FileName
    Exit Sub
  Else
  Dim strResFolder As String
   strResFolder = BrowseForFolder(hWnd, "Please select a folder.")
    If strResFolder = "" Then
       Call MsgBox("The Cancel button was pressed.", vbExclamation)
    Else
    UploadFile = strResFolder
    End If
    CommonDialog1.
    
ErrHandler:
    'User pressed the Cancel button
    Exit Sub
 End If
End Sub

Are you saying that I can just set the Command1 button to lostfocus?

[HeSaidJoe]

Perhaps your default focus is the commandbutton
Ie...if Command1.Default = True then whenever you hit enter you will activate the code in the button.

Put this in your form load event and try it.
Command1.Default = False

Thank you the Command1 button was set to the Default--you guys are good.
