Maybe this layout will give you a better idea of how the argument is laid
out...

Application.GetOpenFilename _
"Graphic Files (*.jpg;*.gif;*.bmp;*.png),*.jpg;*.gif;*.bmp;*.png, " & _
"JPEG Files (*.jpg),*.jpg," & _
"GIF Files (*.gif),*.gif," & _
"BMP Files (*.bmp),*.bmp," & _
"PNG Files (*.png),*.png," & _
"All Files (*.*),*.*"

Try it this way...

Application.GetOpenFilename ("Graphic Files (*.jpg;*.gif;*.bmp;*.png)," &
_
"*.jpg;*.gif;*.bmp;*.png,JPEG Files (*.jpg)," & _
"*.jpg,GIF Files (*.gif),*.gif,BMP Files (*.bmp)," & _
"*.bmp,PNG Files (*.png),*.png,All Files (*.*),*.*")

Joel,
What if you want ALL graphic files to show, e.g., .jpg, .gif, .bmp, .png?
How would the code be written?
Thanx.

.GetOpenFilename (*.jpeg), *.jpeg")
This doesn't work so can you write it properly.
Thanks again

Use the GetOpenFileName which Displays the standard Open dialog box
and gets
a file name from the user without actually opening any files.
Change .txt to
the picture extension you are using such as .jpg


fileToOpen = Application _
.GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt), *.txt")
If fileToOpen < False Then
MsgBox "Open " & fileToOpen
End If
