Thread: Big problem with GetOpenFileName().

You where right anonytmouse. I set ofn.hwndOwner to null to seperate it from my main window, and the problem is no more.

Thanks for the help.

So what would I have to do to prevent that, while keeping my hwnd the parent?

Changing

Code:

      case WM_PAINT:
      {
         BeginPaint(hwnd, &ps);
         BitBlt(ps.hdc, 0, 0, nWndWide, nWndHigh, hdcBuffer, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
         EndPaint(hwnd, &ps);
         break;
      }

to

Code:

      case WM_PAINT:
      {
         BeginPaint(hwnd, &ps);
         BitBlt(ps.hdc, 0, 0, nWndWide, nWndHigh, hdcBuffer, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);
         EndPaint(hwnd, &ps);
         return 0;
      }

works like I guessed, but is this a bad idea to do?
