G’Day,   
  
 - FB 6.2.0.1393   
 - These are not showstoppers:   
  
 \> ESC does not close the dialog   
 \> File/folder, File Spec, Destination don’t appear to support variable completion. ie Type a % and no drop down   
 \> No help button   
  
 Also accessing this dialog from a “Burn CD” action I would have expected that if I double click in the list box I would have the dialog open. Instead you have to select the item and then click “Edit List”.

 Fixed for next build.

 Variable Completion is a function of the Action Properties dialog. It's on our todo list to abstract it further so that it can be used in other dialogs.   
 

> \> No help button

   
  
 Noted.. I'm hoping that this entire dialog will receive some attention in a future version, it's not quite as user friendly as I'd like.

 Changed for next build. Not that double click only works on list boxes when they are not empty.
