Browse button and location path

[adamburton]

Hi Im sure this question has been answered before, but I couldnt find it so here goes.

I have two fields on a form; one showing a document name and the other showing location path (to the document).

At the moment, the user is expected to copy and paste the document and location info from Windows Explorer into these two fields. But I wondered whether I could have a browse button, which when pressed brought up the browse window to allow you to locate the document (using the standard windows browser). Then when you clicked ok, it writes the filename into one field on the form and the location into the other.

Am I asking too much here. Anybody know how to do this.

Thanks,
Adam.
