I want to change the directory for the database! The default location is the DVD Profiler dir in My Documents. I don't know how to change this... (Make the options more user-friendly!)

"create a new database at your chosen location"

Exactly that doesn't work! When I try to choose this new directory and click on the chosen location, this "mini-explorer" snaps back to the default location... quite annoying!

you are right. on mine, too.

what does work, is if you type the path or copy it from the address bar from another explorer window.
