dialogue box code - more help needed please

Hi, I got some help when I asked about this a couple weeks ago, but it's difficult, I need the code for browsing files/folders.
I've sorted out the Get/SetCurrentDirectory, I've also been able to get it to show the files in the current folder, I've also played around with the (\\ and .. ) but I still can't get the hang of going up the tree and down again.

This is more or less what I've got/think at the moment;

1)GetCurrentDirectory
2)Somehow parse that and put extra backslashes -thats one of the hard bits for me.
3)Send that to FindFirstFIle / FindNextFile
4)Separate directories from foders using the File attributes thing -I can just about do that.
5)I was also going to make some sort of copy of the directories names into an array so that to do a new search (go to another directory) I could just put in the array number for that folder, thats because I'm using a console at the moment, (I can't just click on it).

Thanks

What is the end result you are trying to achieve?

Is this some kind of file searcher? If not, then please explain.

If so, then why not just use a recursive routine using findfirst/findnext? It would be simplest way to do it.

sorry I won't be able to say all i want as I'm just about out of connection time.
I'm trying to do just a normal explorer browse thing, I think I've got a way of doing it now though, I think I could just get by with adding strings together, when you get to the top of a tree and you want to look in another folder just add that as a string to the FindFirst/FindNext.
Thanks though

ps I think I kind if just called it a file search, it is sort of like searching files?

GetOpenFileName()
