CFileDialog :: Browse folders

Question

When I try to instantiate a CFileDialog object it shows both the folders and files. How do you create a CFileDialog that browses for folders alone?

Answer 1

Like someone mentioned, use CFolderPickerDialog which works great. I would like to give you example how to use it especially when using the multi select flag:

CFolderPickerDialog folderPickerDialog(initialFolder, OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST | OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT | OFN_ENABLESIZING, this,
        sizeof(OPENFILENAME));

    CString folderPath;

    if (folderPickerDialog.DoModal() == IDOK)
    {

        POSITION pos = folderPickerDialog.GetStartPosition();

        while (pos)
        {
            folderPath = folderPickerDialog.GetNextPathName(pos);

        }
    }
