I did a little research into this, and I'm not sure if you can do that. It seems like it might be an operating system dependent setting.
But if you want to attempt it, you'll need to create a new component and utilize MFC's GetOpenFileName (this creates a standard dialog box for opening files), initialize the data to create an explorer-style dialog box, and somehow use a hook into the box to change the viewing properties...again I don't even know if this is possible, but seems like it would be.
Or maybe someone else has a quick solution that I couldn't find!
Good luck!
