For the common dialog control, have you set it as a control with project components? Once this is done you need to place the common dialog icon from toolbox on your form so that you can use it.

It appears in controls as Microsoft Common Dialog Control. If this is not there see if you have the file COMDLG32.OCX on your computer, this is what is needed.

Are they not already in your toolbox, they've always been there automatically for me?

I'm afraid these appear automatically for me too and theres no reference to them in the add components window. What version of VB are you using?
