I'm trying to find a way to open up a standard MS Windows file open dialog from a form using Developer/2000, has anyone achieved this? I was hoping to do it without resorting to user-exits.

I want to have a field on a form which gets populated by the pop-up file dialog with the full path of the filename selected by the user. This filename will be passed to MS Word for a mailmerge operation (I already have the mailmerge bit working).

Any help would be appreciated, Oracle Support weren't very useful...
