I can display the dialogs using the suggested modifications; however, events such as OnFolderChange and OnCanClose no longer function. This appears to be related to changing t...
Several have pointed out that there exists an undocumented message that retrieves the IShellBrowser interface pointer from the common dialog HWND for the file open & save dialogs. But there is conflicting information (or no information) on whether that pointer is AddRef'd, or if it is just the raw address returned, and no Release() shou...

The code below is one (of three) examples of my grief. It is a simple OpenFileDialog() call which causes the program to crash. On XP, the crash occurs if the dialog stays open for several seconds. On Vista, the crash occurs if the user selects "My Computer". In VS2008, the debugger sometimes catches a stackoverflowexception. If I pu...
Hello, I'm using a file open dialog to chose image files for further editing. The filter list contains an "All supported formats" entry which represents a long list of file formats. Since Vista automatically appends the wildcard patterns in the filter combobox, the expanded combobox is too wide to fit completely on the screen. Besides t...

I want to show a dialog that will allow the user to select a shortcut (.lnk) file. My problem is that the dialog tries to get the file/URL the shortcut is pointing to rather then the .lnk file itself. How can I make it allow .lnk files to be selected? ...
I'm trying to test an OpenFileDialog that is created when the user clicks on a button in my Silverlight 4.0 application. According to the FAQ, the correct way of finding modal dialogs is this: Window mainWindow = application.GetWindow("main"); List<Window> modalWindows = mainWindow.ModalWindows(); //list of all the modal windows belong...
I need to allow users to select an assembly in much the same way that Visual Studio does. Either from the GAC or from anywhere else in the file system. A simple OpenFileDialog will not suffice because navigating to c:\windows\assembly does not allow access to the actual file locations of the assemblies in the GAC. I am not writing a Vi...

I want force hint to show only TXT files. ... CFileDialog f(TR...

Maybe some of you have come across this before.... I am opening files for parsing. I'm using OpenFileDialog, of course, but i'm limited to a buffer of 2048 on the .FileNames string. Thus, I can only select a few hundred files. This is OK for most cases. However, fore example, I have in one case 1400 files to open. Do you know a way to ...

So, is it possible to let the user download data without sending it server sid...
