OpenFileName - Details as default

Using win32lib via Enhanced IDE as my development platform, is there a way to ask that the open file name dialog box be opened with the Details view as the default, and with the resulting view sorted on either file name or in date order (by user choice)? I would have thought that one of the OFN flags would specify the view or the sort order, but I haven't found anything that indicates it to be so. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646839(VS.85).aspx is pretty detailed. It seems that the right way to do this is to specify a hook procedure with the flag OFN_ENABLEHOOK. win32Lib's getopenfilename procedure allows me to set the flag. However, once that is done, I am a bit lost. It looks like the lpfnHook needs to be set with a pointer to a hook procedure and then, at some point, change the view (probably with an appropriately placed ListView_SetView(hListView,LV_VIEW_DETAILS) It doesn't appear that the lpfnHook item is exposed to me. But I'm just guessing at 1/2 of this. Thanks Mike
