Use an Enhanced Openfile Dialog Box Sample

File: ...\Samples\Solution\FFC\Getfilex.scx

The standard Visual FoxPro GETFILE() and PUTFILE() commands provide file picker dialogs, which do not have the look and feel of the latest dialogs. This sample shows use of the Common File Dialog Foundation Class. With this class, you can now have extended UI features on these dialogs including the Places bar on the left side of the dialog, which provides for quick access to other search locations, such as History, Desktop, and My Document.

This sample contains the following classes

Class	Library	Description
_comdlg	_ system.vcx	Contains a set of properties and methods so that you can use the native Windows open and save file dialogs.

For details on all classes available in the foundation classes, see Visual FoxPro Foundation Classes A-Z.
