Ribbons, the file dialog can be set to accept only one file when that's what you need. Its real utility (in my opinion) isn't to replace GetSaveAsFileName and the like, but to provide a way to let the user indicate a file path and name to a program when the program isn't going to use it for ordinary opens and saves. I use it, for example, when I'm going to read a text file that the user downloaded from the mainframe; the user can then run my VBA program, using the file dialog to point it to the file just downloaded, and the program then reads that import and processes it.
