Re: question: d2kwutil.pll (WIN_API_DIALOG.SAVE_FILE)

[Quoted] Hello Ken,

Try to use this call:

    lv_filename := WIN_API_DIALOG.SAVE_FILE(

                     NULL,
                     NULL,
                     'C:\',
                     'All Files(*.*)|*.*|',
                     TRUE);

And remember (if you want to use 'AdvancedFlags'):

  "...To Set the Advanced_Flags varaible, just add the   required flags together. The default is:   WIN_API.OFN_PATHMUSTEXIST + WIN_API.OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST +   WIN_API.OFN_HIDEREADONLY + WIN_API.OFN_NOCHANGEDIR   ..."

'RaiseExceptions' = FALSE by default.

Hope that helps.
