I’m not clear about when they need one #0 or two.  I thought it was just 
.lpstrFile to make it clear there weren’t more file names in it.. so one #0 
between each name and double #0 at the end.. maybe they all need double #0 at 
the end?

I did notice lpstrFilter is terminated by one #0 instead of two. Other than 
that not at a pc to test.

I have put together a program that demonstrates the issue I am having.  I have 
re-structured it a bit to try to make it more clear where the problem is.

While putting this together, I was able to get it to run fine with no problems 
if I did not try to put GetOpenFileNameA back to the directory of the last file 
I processed. Including a file sent in as a parameter.   If I set 
Open_File.lpstrFile:=Pchar(Target_File+#0+#0); where Target_File is the 
complete path and file name of the last file I processed,  If I select only one 
file, then the next time around it DOES work.. and will put me in the directory 
of Target_File and will show the filename of Target_File as a default, but if I 
select more than one file, the next time around, it crashes.. I have detailed 
the crash information in the sameple program comments.

Another way I wish to run this is to leave Open_File.lpstrFile alone and use 
Open_File.lpstrInitialDir to put me in the directory of the last processed 
file, but not specify a default filename.  I can’t get this to work correctly 
at all, but if I use Open_File.lpstrInitialDir without Open_File.lpstrFile then 
it does not crash,  I am just not put in the directory I expect to be in.  

 

Any Advice or suggestions on any of this, or on how I could improve the 
structure or methods of this program are greatly appreciated.
