John--

It's probably that I don't have VB with me and misremembered the name of the property. I'm pretty sure that CommonDialog has a property that will give you just the path, but I can't recall what it is named.

Even if no such property exists, we can take apart the full path using various string manipulation techniques. But we'd probably better wait until I get back from this conference--I don't want to lead you wrong again.

In the meantime, have you looked at the script that places all files found in a specified folder? You might be able to use that script until we can work this one out.

In any case, what you want to do can be done, and it won't even take that long to do--once I can get to the right kind of computer.<g>

Thanks,

Ole
