Roland Reute #1 / 3	file open dialog when clicking on button Hi! I want to include a file open dialog in an existing MFC-application. It should appear when clicking on a button. I also need a pointer to the selected file name. Thanks for helping, Roland.

acala.. #2 / 3	file open dialog when clicking on button MFC makes this problem trivial. CFileDialog dlg( TRUE, "txt", NULL, OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST \| OFN_HIDEREADONLY, "Text File (.txt)\|.txt\|All Files (.)\|.\|\|" ); if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK) { CString string = dlg.GetPathName(); Quote: } Look at the documentation of CFileDialog for the meanings of the constructor arguments. --Josh Quote: > Hi! > I want to include a file open dialog in an existing MFC-application.

Roland, It's just a matter of using CFileDialog in the button click message handler. Here's an example I have to hand that uses a Save As dialog: char szFileName[_MAX_PATH]; CFileDialog dlg( false, "lpt", szFileName, OFN_HIDEREADONLY \| OFN_NOCHANGEDIR \| OFN_NOREADONLYRETURN \| OFN_OVERWRITEPROMPT \| OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST ); if ( dlg.DoModal() == IDOK ) { lstrcpy( szFileName, dlg.GetPathName() ); Dave -- MVP VC++ FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/vcfaq My address is altered to discourage junk mail. Please post responses to the newsgroup thread, there's no need for follow-up email copies.
