Is there a way to embed windows save dialog

Question

The subject has it all. I want to have the Windows save as dialog as part of my own dialog. Is that even possible ?

Answer 1

I would say that what you actually want to do is to extend Windows File Save dialog as opposed to embedding it inside your own. Here are some links:

Answer 2

I've found this MSDN article from 2005:

Extend the Common Dialog Boxes Using Windows Forms 1.x

Applies to:
Microsoft® .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft® Visual Studio .NET 2003

So I don't know whether it'll be applicable in your case. It might have some pointers though.

Answer 3

You can subclass the standard Windows Save As Dialog Box and add your own functionality to it..there's a similar question posted here.

Hope this helps, Best regards, Tom.
