Hello, I was wondering how to make the windows explorer popups that many programs use. I want the one that browses files to either open or save a file rather than requiring the user to blindly type the filename.

You want to call the win32 api funcgtion GetOpenFileName(), here's an example program. You can call it from a standard console program that uses main() if you wish instead of from a win32 program that uses WinMain()
