    Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)

    'Declare a variable to contain the path
    'of each selected item. Even though the path is a String,
    'the variable must be a Variant because For Each...Next
    'routines only work with Variants and Objects.
    Dim vrtSelectedItem As Variant

    'Use a With...End With block to reference the FileDialog object.
    With fd

        'Change the title of the dialog
        .Title = "Archive"

        'Use the Show method to display the file picker dialog and return the user's action.
        'If the user presses the action button...
        If .Show = -1 Then

            'Step through each string in the FileDialogSelectedItems collection.

                'vrtSelectedItem is a String that contains the path of each selected item.
                'You can use any file I/O functions that you want to work with this path.
