CommonDialog control

[PathSmart]

There was discussion on this board this week about a 'CommonDialog control.' I
have tried to use it (actaully I have simply tried to find it), without
success.

Is it a VBA command, or VB? Is it available in Word97 and 2000? Do I need to
load something else to make it available? Thanks.

To make it available in VBA: display the userform you want to put it onto.
Right-click the toolbox. Select additional controls. Scroll down to
"Microsoft Common Dialog Control" and check the box alongside. It will then
appear in the toolbox. You put it on the form the same way as other
controls, but it isn't visible when you run the form until you call it from
code -- it then appears as a separate dialog.
