Common Dialogs Class
The source code for common dialogs is a class that enables you to use the file open, save, print, and other dialogs from within your application without having to put the control on your forms. So how is this a benefit? Because all the properties are set by default, so you don't have to waste time setting them. Better control over the dialogs is provided through exposing more properties. The Browse for Folder dialog is provided. A history of the files and folders is kept. In every way this class is better than the default MS common dialog control. The code is clean and well documented, with an example program provided.
