File/Dir Form Question

Hello,

I am trying to find either an add-in or code to automatically put a file
explorer inside an Access form. I would like to browse thru a database
table that contains a directory and the file explorer displays the contents
(files and folders) in a form window. Other things I would like to do
inside of the file explorer is double click word docs to open or move thru
the directories inside of the file explorer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Mike

Did you know that you could create your own Windows Explore type form
with the Treeview control that comes with Access? I believe I saw a
tutorial somewhere online..
