Web user control in VB.NET

2
Hi,

I am using VB.NET to create a user control which has this property called FileName. For now, when this control is created, I need to type in a file name in the properties window since the property is String. What I want to do is change this property to a file chooser type so that I can browse the file I want and choose instead of typing in the file path manually.

Could any expert out there help me solve this?

Thanks in advance.

  2.     Public Property FileName() As String
  3.         Get
  4.             If ViewState(strFileName) Is Nothing Then
  5.                 Return "Data.txt"
  6.             ElseIf Not File.Exists(strFileName) Then
  7.                 Return "Data.txt"
  8.             Else
  9.                 Return ViewState(strFileName)
  10.             End If
  11.         End Get
  12.         Set(ByVal value As String)
  13.             ViewState(strFileName) = value
  14.         End Set
  15.     End Property
