The OpenDialogEx control enhances the regular OpenDialog control.

It allows you to set the initial directory and it allows the user to choose more than one file.

Example:

'odEX is an OpenDialogEx object.

Sub Globals

      Dim files(0) 'Creates an empty array that will be later filled.

End Sub

Sub App_Start

      Form1.Show

      odEX.New1

      odEX.MultiSelect = True

      odEX.InitialDirectory = "%USERPROFILE%\My Documents"

      odEX.Filter = "Word Files|*.doc"

      odEX.Title = "Choose your files"

      If odEX.Show <> cCancel Then 'Make sure the user didn't press the Cancel button.

            files() = odEX.GetFiles

            For i = 0 To ArrayLen(files())-1

                  Msgbox(files(i))

            Next

      End If

End Sub
