  int DlgDirListComboBox( const char FAR* lpPathSpec, int nIDComboBox,
                          int nIDStaticPath, UINT nFileType );
 
  Parameter       Description
 
  <lpPathSpec>    Points to a path string, must be a CString or a
                  null-terminated character string.
 
  <nIDComboBox>   Specifies the identifier of a combo box control in a
                  dialog box. If <nIDComboBox> is 0, DlgDirListComboBox
                  assumes that no combo box exists and does not attempt to
                  fill one.
 
  <nIDStaticPath> Specifies the identifier of the static-text control used
                  for displaying the current drive and directory. If
                  <nIDStaticPath> is 0, DlgDirListComboBox assumes that no
                  such text control is present.
 
  <nFileType>     Specifies DOS file attributes of the files to be
                  displayed. It can be any combination of the following
                  values:
 
                  Value    Meaning
 
                  0x0000   Read/write data files with no additional
                           attributes.
 
                  0x0001   Read-only files.
 
                  0x0002   Hidden files.
 
                  0x0004   System files.
 
                  0x0010   Subdirectories.
 
                  0x0020   Archives.
 
                  0x2000   CB_DIR flag. If the CB_DIR flag is set, Windows
                           places the messages generated by
                           DlgDirListComboBox in the application's queue;
                           otherwise they are sent directly to the dialog
                           function.
 
                  0x4000   Drives.
 
                  0x8000   Exclusive bit. If the exclusive bit is set,
                           only files of the specified type are listed.
                           Otherwise, files of the specified type are
                           listed in addition to normal files.
 
  Remarks
 
  Fills the list box of a combo box control with a file or directory
  listing. It fills the list box of the combo box specified by
  <nIDComboBox> with the names of all files matching the path given by
  <lpPathSpec>.
 
  The DlgDirListComboBox member function shows subdirectories enclosed in
  square brackets ([ ]), and shows drives in the form [-<x>-], where <x>
  is the drive letter.
 
  The <lpPathSpec> parameter has the following form:
 
  [drive:] [ [\u]directory[\idirectory]...\u] [filename]
 
  In this example, <drive> is a drive letter, <directory> is a valid
  directory name, and <filename> is a valid filename that must contain at
  least one wildcard character. The wildcard characters are a question
  mark (?), meaning match any character, and an asterisk (*), meaning
  match any number of characters.
 
  If you specify a zero-length string for <lpPathSpec> or if you specify
  only a directory name but do not include any file specification, the
  string will be changed to "*.*".
 
  If <lpPathSpec> includes a drive and/or directory name, the current
  drive and directory are changed to the designated drive and directory
  before the list box is filled. The text control identified by
  <nIDStaticPath> is also updated with the new drive and/or directory
  name.
 
  After the combo box list box is filled, <lpPathSpec> is updated by
  removing the drive and/or directory portion of the path.
 
  DlgDirListComboBox sends ◄CB_RESETCONTENT► and ◄CB_DIR► messages to the
  combo box.
 
  Return Value
 
  Specifies the outcome of the function. It is nonzero if a listing was
  made, even an empty listing. A 0 return value implies that the input
  string did not contain a valid search path.
