Currently I have a macro that uses the following line to load a file.
FileName = InputBox("Please enter the Text File's name, e.g. test.txt")
What I want is to change this so it has the standard file load box that
includes the "browse" button and the click on file to choose, etc. The
files I am loading with this macro are down a few folders and trying to get
the target path is a pain when I have to type in the whole path.

Take a look at GetOpenFilename in help, it is all there.

Hi Scott

have a look @ the getopenFilename function.

eg
FileToOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename

Look in the help files for the properties.
