Hi George,

I've noticed a strange thing: if I set in Common Dialog MultySelect flag and set InitDir, when I choose my files the directory remains the same directory and I need to set default to my previous path explicitly. Is there a bug or it works as it should work?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
