file browsing

[sharp_wan]

Hi all,
I have a problem where i want to create a program to read a file from computer and i want to read that file. I've figure out how to read the file using fread funtion. Another problem however is to make the program to able to pop up the explorer window to find/search the file. Is there any special function that can do that in C?

The situation is:
This program will open a file explorer box on request (such as in picture below),



the user will the press the select file button then a pop-up windows like below will come.



the user then can choose the file such as mp3 or text file the open it. the program the will read the file and do something with it.

Thanks in advance!!!!

p/s: I'm using Linux Fedora 15

Search on the use of the GetOpenFileName function.

Ow i see, so this only possible for windows right? Sorry I forgot to mention that I'm using Linux Fedora 15.

Oh, there may be an equivalent. Perhaps someone else can shed some light. You said explorer window and I thought "Windows" as in Microsoft.
