I'm extremely new to programming so I don't understand how to use the
Windows
API to control the common file dialog.

if you just want to show the file open or file saveas dialog use

application.GetOpenfileName()

application.GetSaveAsFilename()

instead.

see help for details.

if you must use the common controls, then use the Windows API to control
it
rather than the activex control.

When working in VBA I try to add the Microsoft Common Dialog Control to
my
toolbox but when I try to use it I get a message box telling me "The
Control
Could Not Be Created Because It Is Not Properly Licensed". I tried
searching
the Microsoft Knowledge Base and Found a utility to fix this in VB6 but
didn't work in my situation becuase I don't have VB 6 installed, just
the
VBA. Any thoughts, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
