Browse button in database

Hi!

I am trying to add a Browse-button to a database, and I believe an
ActiveX-control is the way to go (correct me if I'm wrong). Get an error
that says something like "You don't have the licence required to use
this ActiveX Control", have tried to register the comdlg32.dll, but it
won't let me.
Anybody have an idea what is wrong? Or even another solution on how to
place a browse-button in an Access 2000 database?

The code at the link below is a much better solution than using that control.

I concur. I used the code from that exact page when I had the same
problem with ActiveX controls and the other programmers here thought it
was the coolest trick in the book.
