Hi,
I've written a dll which includes a routine that is a do-all file input routine, that accepts command-line arguments, converts wildcards for multiple files and finally prompts if necessary, using the system32 routine GetOpenFilename. I patterned my GetOpenFilename attempt after the example in the samples folders. I assign a null to the argument hwndOwner.
My problem is that this .dll routine can be called by quickwin applications. It has been my experience that in this case, the window manager gets confused after the GetOpenFilename dialog box is closed. Window focus seems to be lost in never-never land. As the comment text indicates in the example, I've tried using :
For QuickWin
! and Standard Graphics projects,
! use GETHWNDQQ(QWIN$FRAMEWINDOW)
Unfortunately, my routine being in a dll and called by a quickwin application seems to prevent me from using the GETHWNDQQ subroutine successfully. It always returns a zero value. I've experimented with putting the entire GetOpenFilename routine into the quickwin application, with success. However, I'd really like to write the routines into a dll library for efficiency reasons. How can I determine the proper hwindOwner to pass to the system routine from within a dll being called by a quickwin application?
Thanks in advance for your help on this subject,
Jack M. O'Leary
