Hmmm, you are right: in my application I do get the "native" dialog (with the "Last used", "Desktop" etc. icons on the left), but it indeed looks a bit different (really more like the "Windows 2000 look") than the "File open" dialog I get from the Notepad application for example, see attached screenshot. And the rest of my application *does* "look like Windows XP" (so I am using the Windows XP Qt style).

As seen on Windows XP SP 3, Qt 4.6.1, compiled from source with VS 2005 Express.

Cheers, Oliver
