Using cat window LL explorer without saveAS one

[glaverbel]

Hi everybody,

I have a problem concerning the categories window that has to appear for the needs of the application. In fact, I have two cases that can happen in my application : The first one no dataID is passed to it so, a saveAS window has to appear along with categories Window where the user can correct the values he wants. The other case is that a dataID is passed to the application : in such a case, I have to add a version to document that already exists (it's alright, I made it so far) but the problem is that I need to show the categories window (same as the first case and attached to my post) .


So, I think that the way it’s working behind is that XML temporary files are created after SaveAS window has been displayed, to help the categories window to popup for the right document.


Also I must specify that it is not possible to make a mini-browser with the nodeID of the document, creating URL with it, to show the related categories via VB form. All this, because my program is a DLL and it doesn't work to popup form in this "mode" (I have just tried it).


Anyone could tell me how to popup this categories window without the saveAS one ? Is this possible to do it without being linked with saveAS window that I have to bypass in this case ?

Thank you a lot,

David

if there is XDK discussion in KB I will post it there.
The Explorer SDK is LAPI in a new wine,but it is not fully something that I understand.

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?
