File->Recently Used->Show Dialog..bug

[Steven Kang]

When attempting to open a recently used datasource or form, File-> Recently Used-> Menu item works but not when selecting from the dialog list opened by: File->Recently Used->Show Dialog.. Also it would be helpful if, when *starting* a session, if File -> Open opened the last *folder* used. By default it opens the SIMPOLUtilitiesPersonal folder and the user then invariably has to navigate to a commonly used folder where forms and datasources are stored. This is doulbly important given the “failure to completely shut datasources bug” which which often necessitates frequent Personal shut-downs and re-starts of new sessions. Steven

As for the other, this will have to wait a bit longer, but will soon
make it onto the hit list.

The datasources bug seems to be related to the use of forms. It is still
an elusive one, but we are closing in on it.
