Import - database name as variable

Hi,

I want to write a function in VB to copy a table from an existing database
in my current database. No problem.

The only catch is that I want to offer the user an easy way to choose the
exisiting database through an Inputfield or form as in a browser instead of
typing the name and path manually. Ideas?
