Thanks Frank,
I did some experimenting and came up with this code:

Private Sub CommandButton18_Click()
ChDir "c:\Dunrail\Projects"
Workbooks.Open Application.GetOpenFilename
ChDir "c:\Dunrail"
End Sub

This works fine as long as I select a file. If I hit "cancel" instead I
get
an error. How can I trap the error in order to avoid the error message?

Daniel.

hi,
here is a way to call the open dialog box.

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show

You can work it into your code.

Hi all experts,
I have a set (3) of workbooks that open from a shortcut
on the desktop. When
the workbooks are open I want to give the user the
possibility to open an
already existing workbook to replace one of the open
workbooks (the one on
the button to open an existing book) and leave the 2
other workbooks that
are already open. So the user needs to see a windows file
list to choose
from, select a file and than the macro should run further.
I have no idea on how to start on this.
Thanks for any valued help.
Daniel
