    So, I was bored and decided to re-visit my self rolled BFF routine. Yes this is "source code" but I figured I'd be adding to this on a whim so I am plopping it here... have fun...

    Code:
    '----------------------------------------------------------------------------(')

' Comment out %libBFFTestEXE to switch from a test EXE to an INCLUDE
%libBFFTestEXE = 1

'----------------------------------------------------------------------------(')

#IF %DEF(%libBFFTestEXE)
  #COMPILE EXE "BFFTest.exe"
  %UNICODE = 1    ' Not Required but will switch code to UNICODE support if defined
  ' PBS SECTION BEGIN === REQUIRED Somewhere at top of code
  #IF %DEF(%Unicode)
    MACRO PBSTRING = WSTRING
    MACRO PBSTRINGZ = WSTRINGZ
  #ELSE
    MACRO PBSTRING = STRING
    MACRO PBSTRINGZ = STRINGZ
  #ENDIF
  ' PBS SECTION END === REQUIRED Somewhere at top of code
#ENDIF

'----------------------------------------------------------------------------(')

    Seems like a lot of effort for very little gain and loss of a lot of functionality. Apart from fancy fonts, what does it do that this doesn't?

      ANYTHING you want it to... it's pure code. Want it different color, different layout, want larger fonts/icons for the sight impaired, like gradients, bitmap backgrounds, want it to read what's in the path, want it SDK vs DDT, etc....

      The Windows BFF does NOT fit my needs and looks ugly so this (and the original framework) was the solution.

      You, as one of the senior and respected programmers here... am surprised to hear you say it's a loss of functionality. Just add what and only what you want in code. Plus others have asked for similar code.

      I do have one simple ask, can you please show me how your example can JUST display local hard drives and their child hierarchy (one of my specific needs)?

        Very cool George!

          Delete the "ONLY" in the "ONLY 16" and it switches from BFFolder to BFFolder OR BFFile

          Will need a little work to remove the trailing "\" for files though, but that's the point of your own code; customize as you want it.





          *** ADDED LATER: Feature now exists and code updated. The config UDT now includes the ability to supply the GetAttrib/DIR$ attributes as well as acknowledge the DIR$ "ONLY" clause.

            DISPLAY BROWSE (or DISPLAY OPENFILE) does not include access to the callback functions provided in the underlying Windows API function used to implement the statements.

            See: Explorer-Style hook Procedures for OpenFileDialog and SaveFileDialog 3-31-07

            They are, however, a bit easier to use than the Common Dialog functions when you don't need/want all the bells and whistles.
