Both Frame and Word use the new Explorer-style dialog box routines. Word seems to be using a custom template that adds some controls; it's hard to tell. I venture to guess that newer versions of Word use MFC, but I don't know what FM 7.x uses. In any event, the Windows OS routines for File > Open dialog boxes are so customizable that two programs could use the same library code and yet display two very different dialogs.
FM apparently does not have any tweaks for changing the file display default; on the other hand, it does pick up the global Common Dialogs Places bar customization you can make with Tweak UI. Word 2003 seems to stick to the Office 2003 standard instead. If none of this makes any sense to you, then the bottom line is that you can't do it.

I would prefer it default to Details mode. Word doesn't display anything in List mode when I click File > Open, so I'm fairly sure this isn't an operating system (XP) issue. Is there some tweak I can make, perhaps in the Maker.ini, to make Frame default to displaying in Details mode?
