Can you be more specific

Have a look at SHBrowseForFolder() instead. It's specifically designed for allowing the user to choose folders rather than files. CFileDialog designed for choosing files, not folders.

Hi keerthikaaa,
maybe it is some helpful to you

CFileDialog m_dlg(1);
m_dlg.DoModal();
GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1)->SetWindowText(m_dlg.GetPathName());

-- modified at 2:35 Tuesday 11th April, 2006

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_EDIT1)->SetWindowText(m_DisplayName);

I recomend you to use Davide Calabro's CFileDialogST[^] - very good for folder selection!

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.

Smile | :)

Have you got a special file type that has a ".dir" extension? File-system directories don't end in ".dir" normally. By specifying this filter, you'll only allow files that end in ".dir" to be shown in the list control.

If you mean the close button in the title bar, there is no close button object.

Your question doesn't seem too clear.
But as I figure this out you want the close button on the dialog
So you can use the OnClose event and then do all the functioning over there

Vision is Always important and so is your ATTITUDE.

Hi all,

Sorry for my unclear question.

I'd like to have a child window without minimize, maximize and close button. But it should have window icon.

Hope I am clear now.

Thanks once again,
Sarvan AL

You can only remove the close button by removing the WS_SYSMENU style from the window. However, this also removes the system menu (and therefore the window icon).

i have got 85 users i have to store their login details in a file in the encrypted format each time the user selects the save button after providing the details i will be storing into the file in the following way

fpa=fopen(strFilename,"a");
file.open (strFilename);

str="URL="+data1+st+"USERNAME="+user+str1+"PASSWORD="+pwd;
pszDataIn4= new char[str.GetLength ()+1];
strcpy(pszDataIn4, str);

memset(szDataIn4, 0, 96);
memset(szDataOut4, 0, 96);

strcpy(szDataIn4, pszDataIn4);
iBlowFish.Encrypt((unsigned char*)szDataIn4,(unsigned char*)szDataOut4, 96, CBlowFish::ECB);

fputs(szDataOut4,fpa);
fputs("\n",fpa);
this will be done when user cliks on save button each time ;

now i need to decrypt it and show the corresponding details when the user cliks on the particular the next time
i have tried it by reading the whole file and then decryypt it but its not reading the encrypted file

Why? Including in the header file is enough!
