Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about standard file
dialogs.  I'm now using the Windows 3.1 commdlg DLL for all of these
except for directories.

It almost seems like I could set a filter or option for the
GetOpenFileName() routine, but I don't see the best method.  I also
noticed that QuickC/W doesn't use a browser in their Directories
option dialog, so it may be that they don't expect a need for a
browser of this type.

The next step is to come up with my own, but I'd sure like to use
the list boxes with the little icons.  Any suggestions?
