Line 50 (shown below) in WGetOpenFileName is what's causing the failure.

Flags[27]„1   © Set OFN_ENABLEHOOK to force the old-fashioned dialog box.

WGetOpenFileName works when the statement isn't executed . It appears that the OFN_ENABLEHOOK option is not supported in Windows XP x64. The same applies to the WGetSaveFileName function.

The recommendation is to to substitute both functions with the WGetLongFileName and WGetSaveLongFileName functions from the WINDOWS.W3 workspace.

Just for fun, you could try out my AskFile and AskFolder utilities and see how they behave under these conditions. They really should be cleaned up better before a public release, but they should work well enough for now.

I'd attach them to this note, but the forum won't let me attach files here. Would you like me to email them to you, or would it be better to attach them somewhere else?

I'd do that, except that they still need to be cleaned up for an "official" release, so I don't want them spreading around too far in this form.

The quick answer is to try GetDir95 (same workspace) in place of GetDir.

Sorry but GetDir95 also doesn't work.  We're looking into the matter.

Once again it appears an issue with the OFN_ENABLEHOOK flag this time in the BROWSEINFO structure in GetDir95.  GetDir95 works after commenting lines 23 and 56-58.

If you experience a similar problem in other functions, be sure to first check whether the OFN_ENABLEHOOK flag is used.
