Print in columns to a printer or adapt this code to print to a form. First character alignes in a column for each row. No "Space(##)" and no grid.

This code is a cut down version of my sub to show the principle and can be easily adapted. My thanks go to Harvest R for a tutorial(80647232000.zip) I downloaded in Aug/00 which I highly recomend. I hope this code can be used as a learning aid.

It simply shows beginners how to browse through files on your computer without the comdlg32.ocx control (it gets somewhat annoying to use this control on every application and then having to include it in a zip file if you're sending it to your friends). It's nothing that took me a long time to do, maybe a minute, but it might be useful to someone. Oh yeah, and this only uses the standard VB controls, no additional Active X controls
