    Code:
    void DoFileOpen(HWND hwnd)
    {
    	OPENFILENAME ofn;
    	char szFileName[MAX_PATH] = "";
    
    	ZeroMemory(&ofn, sizeof(ofn));
    
    	ofn.lStructSize = sizeof(OPENFILENAME);
    	ofn.hwndOwner = hwnd;
    	ofn.lpstrFilter = "All Files (*.*)\0*.*\0";
    	ofn.lpstrFile = szFileName;
    	ofn.nMaxFile = MAX_PATH;
    	ofn.Flags = OFN_EXPLORER | OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST | OFN_HIDEREADONLY;
    	ofn.lpstrDefExt = "txt";
    
    	if(GetOpenFileName(&ofn))
    	{
    		SetDlgItemText(hwnd, ID_EDITEN, ofn.lpstrInitialDir);
    	}
    }
    im getting starting with

    C:\Documents and Settings\---\Desktop\ddcrypt\ddcrypt.cpp(179) : error C2065: 'OPENFILENAME' : undeclared identifier

    A quick search suggests that you have WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN defined. If so, get rid of it.
