Inserting a text file

A

Anne Pontillo

Hi,

I have a question. I am working on a template that when run will have a
text file inserted into the document created by the template, cleaned up and
then saved.

I am having a problem with the insert file portion. When the template is
run, I want the macro to open the Insert File dialog box with the My
Documents folder as the active folder and the File Type to be set to ".txt".
Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks,
Anne

the file open dialog sux. However, if you use BuiltInDialogs then you
can set the filename to be ".txt" before you show it.
