SHBrowseForFolder bug in Windows 7?

[EDN Admin]

I use BFFM_SETSELECTION and BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE in the code below.  <br/>In XP and Vista this selects the folder and scrolls the list to make the selected folder visible to the user.<br/><br/>In Windows 7 the list is not scrolled to show the selected folder.<br/><br/> Is there a workaround? (without removing BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE)<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
<div style="background-color:white;color:black
<pre><span style="color:blue int CALLBACK BrowseCallbackProc(HWND hWnd,UINT uMsg, LPARAM, LPARAM ) {

TCHAR szDir[MAX_PATH+1];

<span style="color:blue switch(uMsg) {

<span style="color:blue case BFFM_INITIALIZED:

<span style="color:blue if( ::GetCurrentDirectory( MAX_PATH, szDir))

::SendMessage(hWnd,BFFM_SETSELECTION,<span style="color:blue true,(LPARAM)szDir);

<span style="color:blue break;

}

<span style="color:blue return 0;

}



<span style="color:blue bool BrowseForFolder( HWND hParent, LPTSTR szOutPath )

{

<span style="color:blue bool bSelected = <span style="color:blue false;



{ <span style="color:green /* Gets the Shells default allocator */

LPMALLOC pMalloc;

<span style="color:blue if( SUCCEEDED:SHGetMalloc(&pMalloc)) ) {

BROWSEINFO bi; ZeroMemory(&bi,<span style="color:blue sizeof(bi));

bi.hwndOwner = hParent;

bi.ulFlags = BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE |

BIF_RETURNFSANCESTORS |

BIF_RETURNONLYFSDIRS;

bi.lpfn = BrowseCallbackProc;



LPITEMIDLIST pidl = ::SHBrowseForFolder(&bi);

<span style="color:blue if( pidl ) {

bSelected = ::SHGetPathFromIDList(pidl,szOutPath)!=0;

pMalloc->Free(pidl); <span style="color:green // Free the PIDL allocated by SHBrowseForFolder.

}

pMalloc->Release(); <span style="color:green // Release the shells allocator.

}

}

<span style="color:blue return bSelected;

}

[/code]
