Default Workbooks.Open using Dialog box

Is there a way to open a file as ReadOnly using
Application.Dialog(xlDialogOpen).Show?

I want to write re-usable code to allow another end-user to open an Excel
workbook as ReadOnly without first requiring someone else on the network
first having it open.

I would use Workbooks.Open myPath & myFile & "xls" but I don't know what
file the end user will want to open.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam
