If you want to search all drives then you don't have to select them from a dialog.
Just loop thru all of them and get the files from each one...

I would like to use VBA from within an Excel workbook to run the Search
function of the My Computer dialog, and return the found files to a
worksheet. I am aware of the existence of the FileSearch object, but it
doesn't seem to give me the option to display a dialog box like that in My
Computer/Search to define the directories to be searched and the filters to
be used. The FileDialog object allows the selection of directories, but
seemingly only for one drive at a time (I would like to be able to search all
of My Computer).
Thanks for your help.
