OpenFileDialog.OpenFile() in C# under .NET Compact Framework

[Guest]

Hi!
I am trying to make an application to run under windows CE 4.2 where I have
to open a file, to get some info from it.
Now my problem is that the method OpenFile() is not supported for Compact
framework. How can I do this?

Use the dialog's FileName property and one of the System.IO classes (like
the TextReader) to open and read the file.

That depends on the kind of file you are opening but you could try
something like this (this is psuedocode):

OpenFileDialog ofd = new OpenFileDialog();
ofd.ShowDialog();
File.Open(ofd.FileName, .....)
