Default file browser window


Hi,

I was wondernig if anyone could help me...

I have a macro which was written a while ago with some assitance from a
member of excelforum.

Basically it looks in one directory, and copies the files listed in
column A to anther directory. The code is below.

I'm looking now to expand this macro so that when I click the button
"copy files", a file browser window would open so that I can select the
relevant directory rather than changing it in script everytime I want to
look at a different folder. Ideally I'd have the same thing for the copy
destination.

If anyone could help it would be great, even to point me in the right
direction for getting vb to open a file browser.

macro:

Sub copy_files()
Dim rng As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim SrcFilename As String
Dim DestFilename As String

Set rng = Selection
For Each cell In rng
SrcFilename = "\\network_location\" & cell.Value 'change source path
DestFilename = "\\network_location\" & cell.Value 'change destination
Path
FileCopy SrcFilename, DestFilename
Next
End Sub



Many thanks,

Mark.
