Hello,

I want to create a command button in my excel find to find necessary values in an external excel file.

as in many programs, I would like to click on the open file option and select the target file with the windows search interface.

as an example I installed a page of a simple windows program. I guess it is possible to achieve the same thing with VBA.

thank you

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
try this.
Code:
fName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls", , "*")
If fName = "False" Then Exit Sub
Workbooks.Open fName

hth,
Ross
