This may be a very basic question! I am writing an ado file which
will take a data file, perform some operations on the data, and write
the resulting data to another file. How could I write commands to ask
the user to enter the names (with paths) of the input & output files?
This could be either in the form of displaying a text box/boxes for
the file names or, much more preferably, allow the user to browse (in
Windows) to the directory & input file.
Many thanks
