To get that one i have used a variable to store the path .Now iwant that variable to be placed in the place where a predefined path is mentioned. But when place that variable there a error message that:Undeclared Identifier is coming. what should i do to give the path which i want to moniter. :)

hai to all i want to do an application so that i can select a directory and by monitoring the selected directory i need to report the changes made in that directory. For that i have used a browse button to select the directory and displayed the selected directory to be monitored in the edit box. for this i have written like this : BROWSEINFO bi; TCHAR m_DisplayName[MAX_PATH]; m_DisplayName[0]='\0'; memset(&bi, 0x00, sizeof(bi)); bi.hwndOwner = this->m_hWnd; bi.pszDisplayName = m_DisplayName; bi.ulFlags = BIF_EDITBOX; LPITEMIDLIST pidl = SHBrowseForFolder(&bi); if (pidl) SHGetPathFromIDList(pidl, m_DisplayName); GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT)->SetWindowText(m_DisplayName); Next i need a list control for displaying the changed directory files with column path and size and date. here my problem is how can i map the column path,size,date of the directory files to the columns in the listcontrol. :)

hai whitesky thanks for ur help i got it :)

hai to all i have written the code like this for getting a directory selcted and display the path of the selected directory. i was able to select the directory but it is not opening the directory. And the path is not displayed in the edit box which i have specified. here it is: static char BASED_CODE szFilter[] = "Directory Files (*.dir) | *.dir ||"; //create the file open dialog CFileDialog m_ldFile(TRUE, ".dir",m_sResults,OFN_HIDEREADONLY | OFN_OVERWRITEPROMPT, szFilter); //Show the file open dialog and capture result if(m_ldFile.DoModal()==IDOK) { m_sResults=m_ldFile.GetFolderPath(); //Update the Dialog UpdateData(FALSE); } so anyone of u help to get out of this. :)

hai to all i would like to know how can we select a particular directory by using the CFileDialog . And display the selected directory in a static text or edit box. :)

hai when ever i resize the dialog,the controls which are placed on that are to be resized so that no change in the appearence of the dialog will be there. otherwise the controls will be placed at one side of the dialog and the rest of the diaolgs space looks empty which doesnt give a nice look:)
