Standard Windows Dialog Boxes

Most Windows applications share certain dialog boxes that are provided by Microsoft. In Maptitude, for example, the File Open and File Save dialog boxes are the same ones you see in most other Windows applications. GISDK lets you build these dialog boxes into your own applications, along with the Color and Font common dialog boxes. Here is a summary of the relevant GISDK functions:
