title: How get file names using OpenFileDialog in .NET (1000+ file multiselect)
body: <p>Maybe some of you have come across this before.... </p>
  
  <p>I am opening files for parsing. I'm using OpenFileDialog, of course, but i'm limited to a buffer of 2048 on the .FileNames string. Thus, I can only select a few hundred files. This is OK for most cases. However, fore example, I have in one case 1400 files to open. Do you know a way to do this with the open file dialog. I just want the string array of .FileNames, I pass that to parser class.</p>
  
  <p>I was also thinking of offering a FolderBrowserDialog option and then I'd use some other method to just loop through all the files in a directory, like the DirectoryInfo class.  I'd do this as a last resort if I can't have an all in one solution.</p>
