I was having the exact same problem and was able to track it down t
Conditional Formatting with a function in the "Formula Is" field.
Don't ask me why, but if you try to do a Multi-select and one of th
cells in any open workbook has Conditional Formatting using th
"Formula Is" option and then a function in the formula cell, it fail
to return the array of filenames. Clearly this is a bug and it may als
be caused by something else equally as obscure.

Try it and let me know what you come up with.

The next trick is to try to find all of the conditional formatting i
my worksheet!

*This is weird. I copied your code into a macro and saw simila
behaviour -
with the singlefileselect lines commented out, I got the user cancel
message. Re-inserting them let multiselect work fine.
Now for the really weird part - it then continued to work fine after
commenting them out again, even after rebooting my PC, eve
re-creating the
macro in another workbook!
Following code works every time now (ie f is an array if one or mor
files
selected)

Sub test1()
Dim f As Variant
f = Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=True)
If IsArray(f) Then
MsgBox "count=" & Format(UBound(f)) & ", f(1)=" & f(1)
Else
MsgBox "not array, " & f
End If
End Sub

-- More on this issue ---

GetOpenFilename() appears to work on the PC if and only if you cal
it
with Multiselect set to "false" first.

If I comment out the lines in the sniplet bleow to do the
singlefileselect first, the multiselect quits working.

This used to work right. Does anyone know what the problem is??

--- sniplet --

Sub TestIt()
Dim SingleFileSelect As String
Dim MultiFileSelect As Variant
Dim i As Integer

SingleFileSelect
Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=False)
MsgBox "No multi select " & SingleFileSelect

MultiFileSelect = Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=True)

If IsArray(MultiFileSelect) Then
For i = LBound(MultiFileSelect) To UBound(MultiFileSelect)
MsgBox "Multi select " & MultiFileSelect(i)
Next i
Else
MsgBox "User pressed cancel"
End If
End Sub
