In debugging, I have the same issue on my Dell Laptop (WinXP), but not as bad. It normally only take 5 to 10 seconds for the dialog to open on my machine and this seems to only happen during debugging, which is what I wrote it off as.

I've got a that call as basically the only code in the click event handler for a button. On my partner's machine, he clicks the button and sometimes has to wait a minute or more before the OS open dialog shows up. I'm not sure what I could be doing to affect the amount of time it takes for the OS dialog to show, and it may just be a quirk of his machine. Is there any way I can fix this, or if not, handle it gracefully? Troy.
