Common Dialog control is an ActiveX, AFAIK. Were you able to repeat this problem (or receive my e-mail with the screen shot)? I need to switch to some other task (will take ~20 min.), when I'll try different workarounds...

I'm sending you a picture of the screen, after I clicked open button on File_Chooser dialog, so you can see this weird problem yourself. BTW, I found, that this behavior is only the first time. After second time it disappears just fine...
