Unfortunately, for reasons that are beyond me, this dialog is, by default, sorted in ascending date order, instead of descending date order, so that you get the oldest documents you've worked with, instead of the newest.
Like anyone has _ever_ wanted that feature in a Recent Documents list.
While I'm on the subject of this dialog box, how hard is it to save the state of the damn thing from opening to opening? If I'm using the 'details' view, the next time I open the dialog, I want the 'details' view up. Not difficult. Why revert to some standard template that I don't want? Would it be possible to get around this by keeping a copy of the dialog box around, so that I can open and close it at will, but flush the previous selection, and maybe copy settings to another dialog, so I can have different options for save and load?
And why don't other programs do that, if it's so easy?
