Steve,
Are you using any software that may affect standard window's file dialogs?
I am asking because no one experiences the problems you describe
so something weird must be happening on your system.
The only thing I can imagine is that windows file dialogs are
modified by some 3rd party utility and they do not react on
OFN_NOCHANGEDIR flag.
Also if you are using WinXP or Win 2000: what privileges do you have
on the account you are using for AmiBroker?
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
