  BOOL DlgDirSelectComboBox( LPSTR lpString, int nIDComboBox );
 
  Parameter     Description
 
  <lpString>    Points to a buffer that is to receive the selected path.
 
  <nIDComboBox> Specifies the integer ID of the combo box control in the
                dialog box.
 
  Remarks
 
  Retrieves the current selection from the list box of a combo box. It
  assumes that the list box has been filled by the ◄DlgDirListComboBox►
  member function and that the selection is a drive letter, a file, or a
  directory name.
 
  The DlgDirSelectComboBox member function copies the selection to the
  specified buffer. If the current selection is a directory name or drive
  letter, DlgDirSelectComboBox removes the enclosing square brackets (and
  hyphens, for drive letters) so that the name or letter is ready to be
  inserted into a new path. If there is no selection, the contents of the
  buffer are not changed.
 
  DlgDirSelectComboBox sends ◄CB_GETCURSEL► and ◄CB_GETLBTEXT► messages to
  the combo box.
 
  The DlgDirSelectComboBox member function does not allow more than one
  filename to be returned from a combo box.
 
  Return Value
 
  Specifies the status of the current combo box selection. It is TRUE if
  the current selection is a directory name; otherwise FALSE.
