hey, i keep looking around for info on how to use the microsoft common dialog boxes in Commdlg.dll, in VC++ but i can''t seem to find any info on these... does any one know where to get info on these (or just to tell me how to use them) (all i want is the common open dialog box) ThanX RanXacT

GetOpenFileName

Look in the MSDN docs and go to Platform SDK->User Interface Services->User Input->Common Dialog Box Library

If you bought VC++ you should get MSDN with it.
At least I think you should. I did, but that was the pro version.

The MSDN Library (help files etc) is online at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/

The Platform SDK can be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/setuplauncher.htm
