In article , Dave Peterson says...

Make sure you change the drive, too:

Dim myFolder as string
myFolder = "G:\MULTUS\PROVEOUT\"
ChDrive myFolder
ChDir myfolder

Hello X-L Gurus!
I am using the GetOpenFileName method and I would like to have it open into a
predetermined folder. I wrote the code as follows:

ChDir "G:\MULTUS\PROVEOUT\"
strCurrentFile = Application.GetOpenFilename(, , "Please choose the file you
want to process.")

It opens in the "My Documents" folder instead. Any ideas?

Thank You,
-plh

PS:
I also tried
ChDir "G:\MULTUS\PROVEOUT"
strCurrentFile = Application.GetOpenFilename(, , "Please choose the file you
want to process.")
That is without the final "\" in the ChDir statement and got the same result.
