GetOpenFilename FileFilter
 
I want to use the GetOpenFilename method to show me a list of the
subfolders in the current path. I've forgotten how to specify the file
filter to show subdirectories only. TIA, James

If you need to support versions of Excel before 2002 (??), then
msoFileDialogFolderPicker is not available.
Look into using the SHBrowseForFolder API.

Thank you, Nick. I thought about backwards compatibility, but the
FolderPicker is so much easier to use, I think I'll go with that. I'll
look at the link, though.
