    Saving file using Explorer Style box

    Hi People

    Please can someone please tell me how I can include the facility to open a file or save a file using an explorer based save as dialog box.

    I can't seem to add an example image as there appears to be something wrong with this forum. But what I'm talking about is a similar thing to what you get when you select 'file>save as' or 'open...' from word, excel, etc

    Thanks

    Nick

    in excel vba help, see help on

    Application.GetSaveAsFileName
    and
    Application.GetOpenFileName

    these return the selection made by the user as a string (or array if
    multiselect is set to true) which you can then act on to actually open or
    save the file.
