hi there..

soo.. uuuhm..
I figured out how to use File_open, Save-file, create_folder, rename_folder and search_folder dialogues from Windows..

But how can i OPEN and USE this one?:


I need this Window to popup when i need it, and return the choosen path as a string when i hit OK..

Does anyone have any idea on how to do that?

Does really no one know that?

Can you post your code?
Normally the needed string will be returned from the function.

I've no code.. i thought this part said that

i need the code to Open/Call that window
and how to receive the path string from it

GetOpenFileName() is the function you want, read about the OPENFILENAME struct and the flags you can pass to it.

If you are looking for a dialog to specifically select FOLDERS,
may you should take a look at the "SHBrowseForFolder" API...

I cant help much beyond this, as I have never used it...

Best of luck.

@Sid: I don´t want to open a file.. i want to locate just a folder (see the image in the start post).

@evil: I´m not used to API too.. ._.

Then you got to get used to it ò.Ó ?

@Esper; Thats why I told you to look at the flags?!

i read through them in the MSDN several times..
ut i can´t find a Flag to hide the file-chose dialogue, and just show the folder-tree Map ._.
