You cannot set the filename programmably from an external process.  To do so
would require the use of the CDM_SETCONTROLTEXT message, which has a string
parameter.  You cannot pass strings across process boundaries because of the
use of different address spaces.  So you would have to put your code into a
DLL and then use a hook via SetWindowsHookEx() to inject the DLL into the
target process.  Only then will the DLL code run in the context of the
target process instead of your application, so the message can be used.  You
also have the added problem of being ble to find the proper dialog HWND
after it has been opened so that you can send messages to it.  That is not
easy to do from an external process, either.
