COMDLG32.DLL - Centering File Save Dialog and Adding a Check Box 1

[dftjsn]

Hi,

I'm using:

Private Declare Function GetSaveFileName Lib "comdlg32.dll" Alias "GetSaveFileNameA" (pOpenfilename As W32_OPENFILENAME) As Boolean

to get a file save dialog. The dialog form appears in the upper left corner of the screen. How does one center this?

Is it possible to add a custom option button to the file save dialog form from comdlg32.dll? If not, how about putting on the Read Only option but changing the text from Read Only to what my option is?

Thanks!

I've never tried but I think you could customize the dialog appearance with a C++ resource editor. However, I think the code details are encapsulated. Still it might be worth taking a looking at it. You might just as well write your own ActiveX aggregate control. JHall

The VB control is available (Windows Common controls) within Access. I think the default is centered...
