I'm building a pure API application with C++ Builder6.  The 'sizeof' function returns a value of 88 bytes for the OPENFILENAME structure, which causes a CDERR_STRUCTSIZE error and prevents the Open common dialog box from appearing.  Apparently the correct size is 76 bytes.  When this is coded directly into lStructSize the dialog box appears just fine.  Same code under Borland C++ 5.02 works OK, as 'sizeof' returns the value of 76.  What's wrong with Builder6?
