Inheriting from CommonDialog

[Michael C#]

Anyone know of a good resource that details how to inherit from
CommonDialog?

Thanks.

Hi,

Maybe this will help.

Thanks for the link - I saw it earlier when I was searching. It's not
exactly what I want to do though - I actually want to create a new Common
Dialog. I think what I'll end up having to do is create the WinForm and
then create a Component 'wrapper' to instantiate an instance of it with a
ShowDialog() method. Unless there's another way... I was hoping Inheriting
from the CommonDialog class would give me that functionality without having
to rebuild it from scratch.

That brings up one more question - what the heck is the point of the
CommonDialog?
