I am looking to filter out all file types from the listbox (send the LB_DIR message) but "*.html". I set this as one of the params of SendMessage, but when I ran the program, it also filtered out all of the dirs so I couldn't "go through" the hdd. How could I use this *.html filter but also have the directory folders still show up? Thanks...

Maybe there is a way to do it with LB_DIR.
But I've always done it with FindFirstFile and FindNextFile.
You can put them in a linked list and then add them to the listbox.
Garf, if you want an open file dialog, then use the custom windows one. There's nothing to be gained from reinveting the wheel :)
Go to MSDN and look up GetOpenFileName().
Its a bit of a mare to configure, but when it's right it works like a dream

Yes, that's true...

You could add everything and then at the end remove the ones that are not folders or .html files.
Use SendMessage() with LB_GETITEMTEXT and ListView_GetItemCount()
Yes, I might have to do this.Quote:

Really garf...It's much simpler, and much nicer on your user to use GetOpenFilename()
