thanks for reply, what i want is when you press the open button from file menu, it will prompt a open dialog box, right. Basically that box can open the files from c or d drives, but now i want that open dialog box display the ftp server files, not the files from the drives. hope you can get my mean. thx.;) have a nice day :)

You can still use CFileDialog or GetOpenFileName(). It will just require a starting folder. Check out the OPENFILENAME.lpstrInitialDir member variable.
