CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT message

[Starting with Windows Vista, the Open and Save As common dialog boxes have been superseded by the Common Item Dialog. We recommended that you use the Common Item Dialog API instead of these dialog boxes from the Common Dialog Box Library.]

Sets the text for the specified control in an Explorer-style Open or Save As dialog box. The dialog box must have been created with the OFN_EXPLORER flag; otherwise, the message fails.

#define WM_USER                  0x0400
#define CDM_FIRST               (WM_USER + 100)
#define CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT      (CDM_FIRST + 0x0004)

Parameters

The identifier of the control to whose text is to be set.

The new text for the control.
