How do you list all the files in a directory using C/C++? OR How do you open the standard Windows Open Dialog Box?

To get all the files in a Dir you use the FindFirstFile() and FindNextFile() functions, look them up on msdn, and to open the standard dialog you use the getopenfilename()\getsavefilename() functions... eg heres some source riped striaght out of my current project

  
OPENFILENAME ofn;  
char szFile[300] = {''\0''};

ZeroMemory(&ofn, sizeof(OPENFILENAME));
ofn.lStructSize = sizeof(OPENFILENAME);
ofn.hwndOwner = App.CWindows.hMain;;
ofn.lpstrFile = szFile;
ofn.nMaxFile = sizeof(szFile);
ofn.lpstrFilter = "NewsAgent Project *.prj\0*.prj\0All *.*\0*.*\0";
ofn.nFilterIndex = 1;
ofn.lpstrFileTitle = NULL;
ofn.nMaxFileTitle = 0;
ofn.lpstrInitialDir = 0;
ofn.Flags = OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST | OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST;

if(!GetOpenFileName(&ofn)) break;
