Hi,

I'd like to make the button save as.. and load, but I think that maybe this button is made in visual as activeX or something like that.

Do you know if it is made already?

Where do you want to put a button save-as or load ? dialog ? menu ? toolbar ?

And, adding a button for the save-as and load will not actually do all the code ... just sayin'

Watched code never compiles.

Just add them to your toolbar, and then add the code handlers for both items as required.

You have to make the button yourself (just use a button control), then within the event handler of the button press, add the code you need for prompting the user for file names (see my solution[^]).

What do you mean "already made"? If you are creating an application then you should know that all toolbar or dialog buttons have to be added to the project by you. In both cases the Visual Studio Framework does most of the hard work for you; all you have to do is use the designer to drag items to the right place.

If you're talking about using the Windows common dialog for "Save As..." or "File Open" then look at CFileDialog[^] if you're using MFC or the Common Items Dialog[^] when using just the WinAPI.

Yes... you can still use the WinAPI directly, but using MFC classes is generally easier.

Oy vey, you want to know how it is made already! Smile | :)

Anyway, jewish language jokes aside, you add buttons to your dialog though the UI editor in MFC, bring up the toolbar, drag and drop a button where you want it, give it a meaningfull ID, add a handler, add the code.

If that is too much, do a basic tutorial in MFC.

I remember this user from before stating he was just starting to learn to use MFC plus he's not a native English speaker... So, we need to be patient with the new ones... Smile | :)

Gotta learn the joy of Google / Bing. Simple search for CFileDialog(), 2nd returned result was a tutorial.

CFileDialog()[^]

You'd find it a lot faster yourself rather than wait around for somebody to post an answer.

I'm triying to do this:

void CDlgResultados::SaveToFile(void)
{
this->UpdateData();

	CFile f;

	CString strFilter =_T("*.txt");

	CFileDialog FileDlg(FALSE, _T(".txt"), NULL, 0, strFilter);

	if( FileDlg.DoModal() == IDOK )
	{
	f.Open(FileDlg.GetFileName(), CFile::modeCreate | CFile::modeWrite);
		CArchive ar(&f, CArchive::store);

		ar << cadena;
		ar.Close();
	}
	else
		return;

	f.Close();
}

Everything run well, but it function save the file in the folder of my project and not when I want.
what happen?
