MFC Open Dialog

[Anonymous]

How can I force the open dialog to open with a specific path every time? thanks,

Set the lpstrInitialDir field of the m_ofn member of CFileDialog prior to calling CFileDialog::DoModal. If you want the dialog that is shown when the user uses the Open item on the File menu in a standard MFC program you have to dig into the doc/view architechture. There was a post about this earlier, that was about the Save dialog buts it's the same story. cheers Steen
