Not sure if you'll ever FIND a solution to this one. The common dialog box that they use has a lot to be desired. I've noticed it's even worse in the beta! Hope the final version has it improved!

I have noticed that in Word and Excel that I can't seem to get the dialogue boxes (e.g., open file, save as, etc.) to maintain the same column width one time to the next. I've looked a bit for a solution but can't seem to come up with anything. Suggestions appreciated.
