Description |
|
OFNAllowMultiselect |
&H200 |
Specifies that the File Name listbox allows multiple selections. When this is done, the FileName property returns a string containing the names of all selected files. The names in the string are delimited by spaces |
|
OFNCreatePrompt |

Specifies that the dialog box prompts the user to create a file that doesn't currently exist. This flag automatically sets the OFNPathMustExist and OFNFileMustExist flags |
|

Use the Explorer-like Open A File dialog box template. Works with Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 |
|
OFNExtensionDifferent |
&H400 |
Indicates that the extension of the returned filename is different from the extension specified by the DefaultExt property. This flag isn't set if the DefaultExt is Null, if the extensions match, or the file has no extension. This flag value can be checked upon closing the dialog box |
|
OFNFileMustExist |
&H1000 |
Specifies that the user can enter only names of existing files in the File Name text box. If this flag is set and the user enters an invalid filename, a warning is displayed. This flag automatically sets the OFNPathMustExist flag. |

|
OFNNoDereferenceLinks |

|
OFNNoLongNames |

No long file names |
|
OFNNoReadOnlyReturn |
&H8000 |
Specifies that the returned file won't have the Read Only attribute set and won't be in a write-protected directory |
|

|
OFNOverwritePrompt |

Specifies that the user can enter only valid paths. If this flag is set and the user enters an invalid path, a warning message is displayed |
|
OFNReadOnly |
&H1 |

|
OFNShareAware |
&H4000 |
Specifies that sharing violation errors will be ignored |
|
The OFNExplorer and OFNDereferenceLinks flags work only under Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0. Multiselect common dialogs under Windows 95 using OFNExplorer use null characters for delimiters, but under previous versions of Windows NT without the Windows 95 shell, the multiselect uses spaces for delimiters (thus no support for long filenames). Under both Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 95 if you do not choose OFNAllowMultiselect, then both the OFNExplorer and OFNLongNames flags have no effect and are essentially the default. If you use the OFNAllowMultiselect flag by itself under both Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 95, you will not have support for long filenames. This is because the multiple filenames come back space delimited and long filenames could include spaces. You cannot avoid this behavior if you have Windows NT 3.5. If you use OFNAllowMultiselect, you cannot see long filenames. If you add the OFNExplorer flag under Windows 95, you will be able to both multiselect and see long filenames. But the filenames come back null character delimited and not space delimited. Thus, using OFNAllowMultiselect with OFNExplorer will require different parsing of the filename result under Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0. |
