CWnd::DlgDirSelect

Visual Studio 2010

Retrieves the current selection from a list box.

Copy 
BOOL DlgDirSelect(
   LPTSTR lpString,
   int nIDListBox 
);
lpString

Points to a buffer that is to receive the current selection in the list box.

nIDListBox

Specifies the integer ID of a list box in the dialog box.

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

It assumes that the list box has been filled by the DlgDirList member function and that the selection is a drive letter, a file, or a directory name.

The DlgDirSelect member function copies the selection to the buffer given by lpString. If there is no selection, lpString does not change.

DlgDirSelect sends LB_GETCURSEL and LB_GETTEXT messages to the list box.

It does not allow more than one filename to be returned from a list box. The list box must not be a multiple-selection list box.
