Make a backup copy of fmdlg.dll before you start hacking (but you knew 
this anyway, right?).  I tried to do this just a week ago with FM 7.2 but 
FM complained when booting, then died.  I don't know if the fmdlg.dll file 
has somehow changed.  Mind you, I changed the relative positions of some 
of the buttons, etc. as well as generally enlarging the dialogue, so 
perhaps that was it.  Has anybody successfully hacked FM 7.2 dialogues?

Regards,
Hedley

P.S.  Hacking the dialogues is so easy (at least up to FM 7.1) that you 
wonder why Adobe hasn't assigned the work-experience programmer to do it 
for ALL those annoyingly tiny dialogues.
