Using GetOpenFilename
 

Excel 2007. How do I use the .GetOpenFilename method to open a selection
dialog that shows all possible Excel files (like *.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlb, etc.)?
Right now I use:

FName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls", , Prompt,
, MultiFileSelect)

, MultiFileSelect)

Hi,

The help file says.

To use multiple MS-DOS wildcard expressions for a single file filter
type, separate the wildcard expressions with semicolons; for example,
"Visual Basic Files (*.bas; *.txt),*.bas;*.txt".

Cheers
Andy
