1. [Win 7] Extend open/save dialogue with Encoding dropdown like Notepad

If you run Notepad in win7 there is a nice shiny new open/save dialogue. I can get almost the same, but no encoding drop-down.
As soon as I add a hook routine, it becomes a nasty tiny w98-style non-resizeable, erm, thing.
At the top of say GetSaveFileName it says it has been superceded by Common Item Dialog and on that page the sample code AddCustomControls has me completely lost.
Has anyone managed to do this?

Ugh, looks like all that "Common Item Dialog" nonsense uses COM. Have you tried using EuCOM?
