I need an Open Dialog 1

[jvff]

Hello,
I need a dialog for opening files. Is there already one in Microsoft VC++? If there is, how do I acces it? If not, how do I make one? Thanks,

JVFF

There's one in Windows. You can access it with the GetOpenFileNAme() and GetSaveFileName() functions. In MFC you can use the CFileDialog class object. Hope that this helped! ;-)

How can I access CFileDialog in MFC? Can somebody send me a source-code example, please? ThanQ. ;-) Thank you,

Play with this code if you like. Just copy and paste. It will work. It will create a text file and print the time and date in it if you select .txt. If you don't select .txt you get a message box.

You'll need #include <fstream.h>


char Types[3][5] = {&quot;NULL&quot;,&quot;.txt&quot;,&quot;.ipd&quot;};
// setup save dialog
char saveFileName[50] = &quot;Sort&quot;;
CFileDialog dlgFile(FALSE);
dlgFile.m_ofn.lpstrTitle = &quot;Sort Save&quot;; // set window title
dlgFile.m_ofn.lpstrFile = saveFileName;
dlgFile.m_ofn.nMaxFile = sizeof(saveFileName);
dlgFile.m_ofn.lpstrFilter = &quot;Text File (.txt)\0*.txt\0Mpv File (.mpv)\0*.mpv&quot;;

// display save dialog
if(dlgFile.DoModal() == IDCANCEL){
return;
}

// add extention to file
strcat(dlgFile.m_ofn.lpstrFile,Types[dlgFile.m_ofn.nFilterIndex]);

// if user selected text
if(dlgFile.m_ofn.nFilterIndex == 1){

ofstream TextFile(dlgFile.m_ofn.lpstrFile);

CTime t = CTime::GetCurrentTime();
CString s = t.Format( &quot;%A, %B %d, %Y %H:%M &quot; );

TextFile << s << endl;
TextFile.close();
}
else{
AfxMessageBox(&quot;This save type is not implemented&quot;
}
