Setting the size of the File/open window (popup)

Posted: 11-02-2004, 03:01 PM
I would like to have the window that opens/pops up when I do "file/open" in
an application open at maximum screen size so I don't have to drag the
corner to get a larger size or scroll around it to find the file or folder
I'm looking for. If not full screen, then I'd go with a large size that I
can set. Is there any way to set this parameter?

No, you cannot save customizations made to these dialog boxes.
