Yes. The code in win32gui.i only allocates a buffer of 1,024 characters. If you select more than that, you'll get FNERR_BUFFERTOOSMALL. There may be a slimy way to work around this. The code allocates the larger of 1024 characters or the size of the File parameter. You could try something like win32gui.GetOpenFileName( None, File='\x00' * 2048, Flags=... ) -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
