Hi Steve,

I hardly ever use the File | Open option, but instead select a specification from the previously opened list. If we automatically launch the File | Open dialog, this would have to be closed before the File menu could be opened to select a previous entry.

Perhaps it might be preferable to open the File drop down menu so the user could select Open or one of the saved statements? Or under View | Customize | Settings add an "On startup do..." setting with the options:

• Nothing.
• Open browse
• Open previous
• Statement group print

All comments welcome.
