Hi,

I copied your code into my test app and it worked fine.

What do you mean by saying "then Blank show in CFileDialog"?
If I select "Text files" in the drop down of the CFileDialog this dialog will only show text files. So if there aren't any, then the file list could be empty of course.

So when you select "text files" for the file type, you don't see any file in the dialog? Does the current folder has any .txt files? Did you try another folder with .txt files?

Hi,

there's nothing wrong with the code you've posted.

Do the files have the right extension ("*.txt")?
Are they shown if you try to show all files ("*.*")?

Dear Msm,

I've tested exactly the code you've posted. It did work. Selecting "Text files (*.txt)" I see all folders (incl. "My Documents" which is called "Eigene Dokumente" since I'm using a German Windows) and all text files.

Can you explain in more details what exactly you're doing, what you're expecting and what are the results?

I'm using a Win XP SP3 (German).
