Judith,

You're welcome. :)

re: file names in "File, Open, Save, etc":

I'm not sure, but from the once or twice I included that "File, Open, etc"
type code, you don't have to provide actual default file *names*, just cause
the menu choice selection to open a DIALOG which allows the program user to
*select* what file they wish to save or open from the dialog generated list
box.  Once you cause the Dialog to open, all the rest is pretty automatic,
as I remember.  I used it in my "RunDemos" thingy that Derek  includes in
the Win32Lib distribution, so users could find and open Wolfgang's Tutorial,
wherever it happened to be on their disk (I also gave it an automatic search
feature, too).
