Everyone has seen that nice little file selection box that windows has, u see it in nearly all programs when u goto File -> Open in a programs menu. Now i see this as a standard, does ANYONE know how to bring this up using c++?

Using the Win32 API you use GetOpenFileName().

In MFC, you use CFileDialog. Unsure whether there is a Win32 API equivalent. Unfortunately, my motherboard is toast (thank you SO much, idiots at the power company and whoever made this piece of junk surge protector that, well, didn''t...) so I can''t look it up right now (no compiler installed on my husband''s machine, which I''m working on.)
