File dialog box

[Arie Verheul]

Any Windows program that i know uses to open and save files about the same dialog box.
Is this a ready to use device like ChooseColor and Choosefont, and if so what is its name ?
I searched for this, but could not find it, nor examples of its use, which usually means that it is not easy.
Can anyone give me a hint, or refer me to an example ?

OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog, both in the sane include file than ChooseColor and Choosefont: ComDlg32.inc.

And, if you have the new compilers, then look for DISPLAY OPENFILE and DISPLAY SAVEFILE.

>OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog

These are PB-created 'wrapper' functions for the Windows GetOpenFileName and GetSaveFileName functions

If you want more control than offered by PB (eg Explorer-Style hook Procedures for OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog 3-31-07) you'll have to use the WinApi Calls.

(Oops, forgot, I rewrote the wrapper functions for you in that demo).
