I am trying to just locate a folder and not an actual file. Anyway I can setup the OPENFILENAME to do that? I looked at the MSDN for it and I couldn't find anything. Is there another way to open up a dialog box to browse to a folder and select a folder? I will be outputing multiple files to the folder and just want to get the folder path. Thanks -THACO

I would use SHBrowseForFolder()

Thanks, I seem to be having some trouble with it though. I am trying to use it with my 3dsmax plugin. I read the msdn on it I did CoInitialize(NULL), I set LPBROWSEINFO->hwndOwner = ip->GetMAXHWnd(); but what other parts of the structs do I have to set? Currently it crashes 3dsmax when this code tries to run. Thanks for any help you can give
