There is an InitialDir property that allows you to set the
directory that will be displayed when the dialog is
executed. You can save it's value to a section in INI file
(add Uses IniFiles; first) or just to a text file then load
it from file. But first call ForceCurrentDirectory; in
OnCreate or OnShow event handler.

What "report" do you mean? If you want to save it as a
Bitmap use BitBlt. This will capture the entire screen
however.
Good Luck.

I don't talk about this. I mean the toolbar in the top-left of the dialog.
You can choose the way to display the directory structure.
I want to save this param.
