Please show us your code so we can fully understand your question.

Are you using the openFileDialog.FileNames property to retrieve the filenames that are selected?

Hey I'm just wondering if there is any reason you can't navigate directly to the folder the files are in in you code and loop through all the files that you need and add them that way? I.e add all the files ending in .txt or .pdf or whatever... I can do a quick example if needed.
