Hi Jetli, Thanks for the responce. I tryed with that code i am getting error
SetDlgItemText(IDC_PATH,szDir);error C2660: 'SetDlgItemTextA' : function does not take 2 parameters Error executing cl.exe.Which type is your application ? if it is a MFC dialg based app the paramter to SetDlgItemText is correct , otherwise u need to provide the HWND of your dialog in SetDlgItemText function. SetDlgItemText( , IDC_PATH, szDir); Refer MSDN.
If u can Dream... U can do it

So where you placed the edit control ? dialog or window ? and which function you using for showing dialog(DialogBox() ) ? you will get the hwnd of dialog in dialog Proc. if it is dialog put your dialogs handle in SetDlgItemText Hopes this helps
If u can Dream... U can do it

You passing wrong value as third parameter, it should be message to send(WM_SETTEXT in this case). Modify your code to,
SendDlgItemMessage(hwnd,IDC_PATH,WM_SETTEXT,0,(LPARAM)szDir);
You can use
SetDlgItemTexteither.Prasad Notifier using ATL | Operator new[],delete[][^]
