Can QTTabBar be enabled to work in the "open file" box dialogue in programs like Microsoft Excel? I hate having to search for the files I want to open in different directories on different hard drives. I used to use a program called XFilesDialog in XP that did this.

Totally agree
Actually I was about to suggest that, but somehow I forgot =)

Shareware:
Direct Folders <— This is the one that is the closest thing to how QTTabBar's desktop tool would (should?) work for Open dialogs as you can double click anywhere and open a link in virtually any type of Open dialog. I think this has exactly the functions that you are wishing for in QTTabBar, right? :)

Me too! :)

Some other cool free programs that add favourites to Open dialogs. DM2 is my favourite as it has many other features. Look out for FlashFolder though, a new version is coming that promises some massive improvements.

DM2
FlashFolder
FileBox eXtender
CFDButton

Thank you so much for the information. Do you know if all of these work with Vista? Particularly Vista 64?

I wouldn't know.

I chose to run FileBox eXtender after trying all the ones recommended in this thread. However, now I cannot get QTTabBar to run! I got it to run in my Vista 32 Basic but it is no where to be found in Vista 64 Premium even though it installs with no error messages.

I prefer FlashFolder.
