HOOKING MS OFFICE FILE OPEN SAVE DIALOG

[Juggernaut Juggernaut]

Hello ,



I am trying to do the following information from File/Open save dialog of Microsoft Office 2000/2003/2007



1.Retrieve the currently displayed/selected folder path and also the file name that is selected if any.



2. Retrieve the selected file path, when the user clicks the open or save button.



3.Set a pre-defined string path within the file-name combo box.



I have been able to do the above task in case of File /Open save common controls dialog(used by WordPad ,Notepad, Acrobat Reader etc. ) by using the dialog functions depicted in MSDN. But it is not working with Microsoft Office Dialog and I have found no MSDN documentation that depicts the internal messages of Microsoft Office Dialogs.



Please help me if you can.



Thanks and regards,

Not a hardware problem. Try an Office newsgroup.

The default locations for Office are accessible in an Office component under
Tools>Options, as I recollect
