how to change title in open file dialog of a SDI application

[Z.K.]

When I click on the file folder on the toolbar, a dialog for opening
files comes up. I would like to be able to change the title of the
dialog as well as the caption of the button. How would I do this?

If you have not already done so, install the MFC library source code
from your setup disk. This will help a lot in understanding how things
work and in debugging.

Follow the MFC code starting at CDocument::OnFileOpen to see how it
displays the File Open dialog. You can replace this code with your own
similar code. When you create the CFileDialog you can initialize its
m_ofn member to customize many options.

Ok, well I was trying to use what was already available in the SDI, but
maybe I should just use the SHBrowseForFolder instead. Thanks anyway.
