Hardware requirements
Yes, I can open other excel files on my mac. When I say can't open I mean that I CAN'T OPEN THE FILE IN EXCEL. I get a message saying that I can either see it was read only or notify, but this only happens on a desktop mac, when I try to open it on my macbook I get no message. I have done this with Excel for Windows but it doesn't seem to work on a Mac. I want to open the 'Finder' on a Mac to select from available Excel files. I have a directory to start in: /users/tvavra. I want to have the user select from this directory the appropriate file. From there I will.

Select files on a Mac (GetOpenFilename)
In Windows we can use for example GetOpenFilename to select files and do what we want with the path results, you can use filefilter to only display the files you want and use MultiSelect to select more then one file. Also it is possible with ChDrive and ChDir to set the folder that is selected when GetOpenFilename opens, see a example on the bottom of this page for Excel for Windows.
But on a Mac the filefilter is not working and it is not possible to select more then one file. Also ChDir is not working like in Windows to set the folder that will open with GetOpenFilename. But we can use a combination of VBA and Applescript, see example below that only let you select xlsx files and you can set the start folder.
Important : The file location can be very important in Mac Excel 2016, read : Problems with Apple’s sandbox requirements in Mac Office 2016 and higher with VBA code
Example for Mac Excel 2011 and 2016 and higher
Note : Do not forget to copy the bIsBookOpen function below the macro.
You can run the macro below without changing it, it opens the Desktop in the file select dialog and you can only select one xlsx file now, see the code how to change this.
Note : If you got problems with the code please report it to me so i can fix it.
Other file formats are :
In the macro you see this code line that say which file format you can select (xlsx).
FileFormat = '{'org.openxmlformats.spreadsheetml.sheet'}'
If you want more then one format you can use this to be able to also select xls files.
FileFormat = '{'org.openxmlformats.spreadsheetml.sheet','com.microsoft.Excel.xls'}'
This is a list of a few formats that you can use :
xls : com.microsoft.Excel.xls
xlsx : org.openxmlformats.spreadsheetml.sheet
