How do I call the choose folder dialog
-
I´m trying to show the Folder dialog. Does any body knows where can I get a sample ATL/WTL project with this.
SHBrowseForFolder()is the API. There are wrapper classes here on CP (but I haven't looked to see which ones use ATL.) --Mike-- Just released - 1ClickPicGrabber - Grab & organize pictures from your favorite web pages, with 1 click! My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_Helm -

My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_HelmYes, I have the following Function wich calls the BROWSEINFO API, but when I run this on Win98 I get an exception, but on winME everything works OK. Can somebody help me solve this problem.:confused: BOOL folderDialog(const HWND parent, const char *topic, char *result, const bool allowNew, const int extraFlags) { // CoInitialize must be called to support BIF_USENEWUI.

Check the MSDN. One or more of the functions you are calling may not be implemented by the Win98 shell. Gary R. Wheeler
