Default GetOpenFilename - Problem

Harald

My FileFilter contains 300 characters or nine different filetypes. How to
enter this?

Hi Tom

How many filetypes could be reasonable to offer ? (Imo you're not

underestimating your
users sufficiently. Users are always to be considered stupid :-) Anyway, a

good workaround
is "All files *.*" at the end of the suggestions.

You're not happy with this, ok, I know already ...

Hi

I have a problem with the Application.GetOpenFilename-function. This
function requires the parameter FileFilter. The length of my FileFilter

is
morer than 255 characters, but the maximum length of this text is

limited to
255 chars. Any ideas for solving this? Maybe a workaround? Many thanks

in
advance.

Tom
