Hi Tom,

oh yes, it does allow you to specifiy the path.

.sFileTitle = vbNullChar & Space$(512) & _
vbNullChar & vbNullChar
.nMaxTitle = Len(OFN.sFileTitle)
'Starting folder, double-null terminated
.sInitialDir = ActivePresentation.Path & vbNullChar


.sDialogTitle = sTitle 'the dialog title string

set .sInitialDir to "c:\" or whatever and the dialog starts in that
directory.

Another example is
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;161286

OpenFile.lpstrInitialDir = "C:\"


hth,
Stephan
