MFC cant do this?
Author
I''m using MFC to make an app and I would like to let the user select a directory. How can I do this? I would have liked to use a common dialog box, but I can only get it to let you choose a file.
Do you know how to make it start somewhere down the namespace?
I know you can set a root, but I want the root to stay ''My Computer'', but have the browser expanded to the last place they picked a directory from.
I saw with my own eyes a M$ app do just that - funny it''s not documented... (AFAICT).

I'm not sure if this will work, but possibly a initialization event will be sent to the callback function you could have specified (the lpfn member of the BROWSEINFO structure), and you'll be able to change the current directory from there. I haven't tried this though.

FordPrefect: Shouldn''t you have ''Somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse'' in your From field?
For tons of different implementations of directory selecting and pretty much anything else you are looking for with MFC
