In your Message Handling loop, after the switch statement, type:
1

case WM_CLOSE:
    EndDialog(hWnd,0); // Use this if you create the dialog via DialogBox function
    PostQuitMessage(0); // Use this if you create the dialog via CreateDialog
    break;

Stackoverflow @ char szFileName[124000] in your window procedure.. 124k characters for a file path?? use something sane, like the MAX_PATH constant.
