Why don't you just use CFileDialog class?

Thank you masters!

A sample code to select Text/CSV file here:

CFileDialog l_SampleDlg(TRUE,NULL,NULL,OFN_OVERWRITEPROMPT,"Text Files (*.txt)|*.txt|Comma Separated Values(*.csv)|*.csv||");
int iRet = l_SampleDlg.DoModal();
CString l_strFileName;
l_strFileName = l_SampleDlg.GetPathName();

  if(iRet == IDOK)
      MessageBox(l\_strFileName);
  else
      MessageBox("No File Selected!");
