Open dialog box and disabling
 

Hi All,


My Visual Basic application is using Excel for reporting.


I need to restrict the users of my application to open only excel file
from
the File-Open dialogue box.


Or


Is there any way to make default ‘Excel files (*.xls)’ in the File
type
combo box in the Open dialog box and disabling the Files type comb
box, so
that the users can only select excel files when they click File-Open



Please help me in this regard
