FileDialog is ok for me either way. Why don't you do what's best for Rob in Cabinet Planner.

Rob said it would make no difference to CP, because he always explicitly sets the initial directory.

I think option 2, having the filedialog remember the last directory if none is specified, would be best. That is normal for most programs.

Option 2 is actually how I like to operate anyway, by default. I would have no objections.
And ... change is good! Keeps 'em guessing!

Just to say that I've not forgotten about this, but it's not high on my list of priorities. It was, after all, more than six months before the change in the behavior of the FILEDIALOG in v3.01, to improve the compatibility with LB 4, was even commented upon!
As the preference, on balance, seems to be to reverse that change I will tentatively aim to do so around June, which is the next date on which I would normally be considering an update (always assuming that by then I've not once again 'abandoned' LBB, which on past experience is entirely possible!).
Richard.
