Useing menu bar in VB to call CommonDialog.ShowOpen

I'm going to use Mmenu Bar in a VB6.0 application to open file.
CommomDialog1.ShowOpen brings Open Window. But how to retrive a file name,
by clicking on 'OK', in the Open Window and pass it to VB code to open it?

Does CMDLG32.OCX have any properties to return a file name?

Thanks in advance,

Dajing

Dajing,

Yes it does - it would be useless if it didn't. It's called FileName
(big surprise huh?!).

BTW, this has nothing to do with API.
