If you are using VS 2008 or VS 2005 just drop an OpenFileDialog from the toolbox on your form

You essentially do something like this

C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
   if(openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
   {
// The ShowDialog does just what it says
//Do whatever you like to do when you clicked OK button in the dialog, see also hints by Antenka
    }
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if(openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) { // The ShowDialog does just what it says //Do whatever you like to do when you clicked OK button in the dialog, see also hints by Antenka } }

Have you checked what properties and how to use the dialogbox as per the helpfile? If we hand you all the code you dont learn how to find these things and will end up frustrated as you have to ask for everything and it takes longer.

If you look at the dialogbox in the helpfile, it has examples, it shows how to get the filename and stuff back, then the label component has properties of its own and you can see how to apply them..

Far more pride and joy is got by doing it yourself.
