Filename validation in VC++

Validating files names should not be very difficult, Is it? . Yes, it is if you trying to do in VC++. Here is a small snippet of code that helps :-

CString fileName = "test:11";
for (int i = 0; i < fileName.GetLength(); i++)
{
 if (!(PathGetCharType(fileName[i]) & GCT_LFNCHAR)) 
 {
  bValid = FALSE;
  break;
 }
}

Do not forget to include "Shlwapi.h"
